Hundreds of mourners attended the funeral of Michael Brown, the 18-year-old shot dead by police in Ferguson, Missouri two weeks ago.

The author and activist Kevin Powell, who was at the funeral, spoke of "the powerful moment" when Michael Brown's mother laid her hand on her son's coffin.

鈥淗e had a lot of very, very powerful people there, but the hope is, it's not going to just be a moment, and we don't do anything about the issue of racial profiling in our country," said Mr Powell.
