On Monday, a judge announced that a grand jury would not indict Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Mo. Police officer involved in the fatal shooting of unarmed black teen Michael Brown.

Since the announcement, violence has erupted in the streets of the small suburban town and people all over the world are participating in civil protest's to show their respect to Brown's family, and demand a change within the justice system.

Despite efforts by Brown's father to keep peace, violence immediately erupted in Ferguson after the prosecutor announced the decision, and it only looks like the unrest is getting worst.

While there may be a lot of violence and civil unrest, there are a large number of citizens listening to Brown's father and rallying in peace and with dignity.

Protesters around the world particularly New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Washington D.C. have held large peaceful protests to demonstrate unity and demand change.

Celebrities have also shared their support of the Brown family by sharing thought messages via Twitter, Instagram and some have even gone as far as participating in rally's and some of cancelled appearances to show their respect for the grief-stricken family.

Macklemore walked with protestors in Washington, D.C on Monday night, and in the video (see below), the rally goers are chanting 'Don't shoot! Hands up!' Country singer Garth Brooks cancelled a promotional tour until further notice. In a statement, Brooks said, "To spend the day promoting our stuff like nothing was wrong, seemed distasteful to me."
