The family of Michael Brown and other activists in Ferguson, Missouri are asking Black Lives Matter for $20 million.

Michael Brown Sr., father of the teenager who was fatally shot by a police officer in 2014, and Ferguson organizer Tony Russell made the demand after a report that the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation (BLMGN) hauled in over $90 million in 2020.
