Michael Brown should have turned 20 years old today.

On August 9, 2014, former Ferguson, Missouri, police officer Darren Wilson shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown, leaving his body lying in the middle of Canfield Drive for more than four hours. His death—and the subsequent lack of indictment for his killer—sparked a revolution and focused the nation’s attention on police violence like never before.

Had he lived, Michael Brown would have turned 20 years old today (May 20). #MikeBrownForever is trending as the world remembers him.
