Raises new doubts about militarized Police Forces around the country. These are live pictures from ferguson, missouri, where tonight the curfew on protesters has been lifted and the National Guard is on the scene. There were new arrests after more violence on sunday as protesters demand answers in the Police Shooting of Michael Brown. Todays browns family released an autopsy report that says the unarmed teenager was shot at least six times. Robert ray is in ferguson with more. Robert can you tell me how the crowd is reacting to the presence of the National Guard . Reporter good evening, randall. The crowd all day has been concerned about the fact that the National Guard has decided to deploy. We had protesters come up and down the main drag throughout the day. There has been some scuffles throughout the day, but mostly very peaceful. And as the sun comes down here, there is a calm peace or quiet at this point tonight. Were hoping it stays that way. You can see behind me, many of these people gathering, as state police, National Guard, st. Louis county and local officials are here, awaiting to see exactly what the protesters have up their sleeve tonight. Randall. Tell me, is there any one person or organization that is coordinating these protests . How does it work . Reporter yeah. That is a great question. So far there is not a coordination that we can put our finger on. This gentlemen behind me, what he told us earlier today is he is trying to make an effort of an organized coordination, so that some of this violence that has been popping up doesnt occur. Thats why you can see he has a megaphone and trying to do this peacefully. But theres confusion out here, even to the point of where the protesters are supposed to walk to. They have been told they cannot gather, and they need to keep moving. This man is the lawyer for black justice. And he is the big organizer for tonight. Did you see the arrests made today and what were the people being arrested for . Reporter yeah, they were taken into custody for staging, what they call it. They are supposed to move up and down the street. If you stand long enough, the police will come up to you and say were going to tell you to leave, and the protesters will say, this is my right to be here, and next thing you know they are on the ground with ties around their arrest. And we actually said to the police at one point, we were in a different area down the block, trying to get close to more of the protesters, and the guy said you guys got to move, im just doing our job, and we said were just doing our job as well, and he said to call the governor. So these arrests are being made by the authorities or county sheriff or state police, or can you tell . Reporter yeah, its state police, and st. Louis county authorities. Ferguson police are still out here. But the arrests are being made by state police and st. Louis county. Were standing next to a mcdonalds about an hour ago there was about 15 of these guys standing outside. They shut the mcdonalds down at 6 00. That was where last week two journalists were detained, because they were in there and couldnt get their bags picked up quick enough. As you can seay cross the street, the police are over there, if you cross the street and you dont go into a peaceful protest pen as they say, you are going to get arrested. Well tell you once, and then were going to arrest you. Last question, robert, can you see the National Guard. Can you see how many soldiers are out on the streets right now . What kind of equipment they have . Reporter we we had a National Guard member behind us about a half hour ago, but the staging area for the National Guard is about a half mile up the street, and thats where like the command post is for all of the officials, the police, and they are going to put a perimeter around that tonight. Because some of the protesters made their way into that staging ground. But i can guarantee you, as the sun comes down, we will likely see the humvees roll down the street and show their presence. And by the way, no school. School was supposed to start, not happening. People are not happy about it. Thank you, robert. Reporting live from ferguson, missouri, keeping watch on the police, the guard, and the community. Three different autopsy are expected in the killing of Michael Brown. The st. Louis medical examiner conducted one last week. Federal Officials Say they will conduct their own autopsy, and today browns family released the results of an independent autopsy. Reporter Michael Browns parents had questions. She asked was my child in pain . And the doctor shared with her in his opinion, he did not suffer. Reporter they asked the former medical examiner of new york city to perform an independent autopsy. It was determined that the teen was shot at least six times. Brown was hit twice in the head, but the shot that killed him was a bullet to the top of his skull. I do feel because of the two gunshot wounds to the head indicating that mr. Brown was bending over as they were coming over, that those two shots were the last to occur to him. Reporter four bullets hit brown in the right arm and palm. Friends say his hands were up in the air when the officers began shooting. I put my hands up, and you see where that wound was at. Reporter police have said wilson shot after brown attacked him and lunged for his gun. The doctors examination indicated that brown was shot from at least one to two feet away. This autopsy didnt find any gunshot residue on the teenagers body, but there was no access given to his clothing to determine if there was residue. There were scratches to the teens face. There are abrasions around the right side of mr. Browns face. Rubbing against the ground, which happened as best we can tell when after the gunshot wounds he fell down unprotected and got those abrasions. Otherwise no evidence of a struggle. Reporter the medical Team Stressed that its findings were preliminary. Were here as forensic scientists. Were looking for information that is from the autopsy and other scientific studies that will allow us to eventually reach final conclusions. Reporter st. Louis county has completed its autopsy including the toxicology report. Those results have been passed on to the country prosecutor, but will not be made public until the investigation is complete. Natasha ghoneim. Dr. Judy worked in the new york citys medical office in 2003, and is the author of working stiff. Im wondering, whether you take any issue with the findings that the doctor announced today . I do. The first thing that concerns me is this idea that a second autopsy is independent and the first is not independent in some way. The st. Louis county medical Examiners Office is an independent office. Its part of the department of health. Its not part of the Police Department. So the idea that somehow a second autopsy is more independent than the first one is not really correct. The second issue has to do with the interpretation of the trajectories. Because you cant interpret them in a vacuum. Even the doctor himself said we dont have the clothing, we cant interpret this without getting the additional information. What would be critical information that the doctor was lacking as he prepared his independent report . One thing would be where the bullets ended up. There were bullets recovered at the time of autopsy. X rays were taken. And the final point of lodgement, as we call it for the bullets would tell you the exact trajectory. Not just where the hole entered, but also where the hole ended up. That could establish whether the hands were facing forward, or whether they were up in the air. One of the claims made early on was that Michael Brown was shot in the back. At least at this junction, booeden seems to be saying that is not the case. What does that tell you . It tells you is you get a lot of different stories about what people saw or think they saw. So people who say he was shot in the back as he was running away. We can say there is no entrance gunshot wounds on his back so thats not consist ekt. When you say his hands were up in the air, if you look 59 his hands in the diagram, theres a graze wound going up the thumb. Going up the thumb makes sense if his arm is extended towards the officer, but not if his hand was up in the air. So you have to interpret it in the context of the different stories you get. What kind of technology would the doctor have had available compared to the official finding of the medical examiner in the county. First of all the official finding was based on the autopsy of the body when it was not disturbed. The clothing was still on it, the washing has not occurred of the body, and the bullets were in their proper location. In the first autopsy, cuts are made, and the probes are washed and altered, and then the bodies is washed before the body is released. So its not surprising he couldnt find residue on the body. I dont think any amount of techniques are going to reconstruct what was learned from the first autopsy in a second or even a third. And of course it begs the question of what federal authorities are going to find when they conduct another autopsy. Doctor thank you very much for your time and incite. Thank you. A little later we look even deeper at the forensics that could come into play in this case, and how new technology could help investigators sort out the conflicting stories about the final moments of Michael Browns life. State officials and president obama all say the guards role in ferguson will be limited, but their arrival does send a strong signal. Jonathan betz is here with more. Rarely do we see the National Guard called into situations like this. But after nine days of protest and anger, the government decided they needed more protection. After days of peaceful protest mixed with violence. The governor decided to send in the National Guard. In a statement he said. The governor cancelled a curfew, and said the soldiers would only be charged with protecting a Police Command center, set up not far from where Michael Brown was killed. How do you communicate and built trust with people if you are changing things on them and they perceive this as punishment. Reporter protesters are already criticizing what they are calling a heavyhanded approach. He has two battalions of military police in missouri, so its assume that is the formation he sent, which means there are police officers, but military police officers, and they are cleared to do any Law Enforcement tasks assigned to them by the governor. Activating the guard provides more manpower and equipment. In 1957, they helped the little rock nine black teens attend a school. In 1992 the National Guard was called into l. A. After the beating of rodney king. And in 2005, 30,000 guard members helped stable new orleans after hurricane katrina. Ill be watching over the next several days to assess whether in fact its helping rather than hindering progress in ferguson. As the president pointed out, most protests have been peaceful. But the governor blames the violence on a small group of people that are from out of town. Thank you, jonathan. President obama says he understands the anger that has lead to a weak of unrest, but violencing wont bring about justice. Mike viqueira joins us live from washington. Mike . President obama is back from Marthas Vineyard for a brief break from his vacation. He met with eric holder, and then appeared in the briefing room, and said that eric holder was going to ferguson, missouri, he is bringing along the Justice Department liaison. Because of the strains between the groups. The president and eric holder also reminding everyone that a civil rights investigation is now underway. Interviews have been conducted for the last several days. And the president noted the vast majority of citizens were there peacefully and executing their constitutional rights, but he noted there were some in the crowd who were agitators looking for trouble. While i understand the passions and anger that arise over the death of Michael Brown. Giving in to that anger by looting or carrying guns and even attacking the police only raises tensions and stirs chaos. It undermines rather than advancing justice. Now randall this is the second time the president has spoken about the events happening on the streets of ferguson. The president was asked whether he himself will go to ferguson to try to speak in person there, to try to effect the deep breaths and calm he has asked for. He say he doesnt want to insert himself physically, or be overly aggressive in his rhetoric as well, he says that would quote, put a thumb on the scale. But eric holder will be there on wednesday. Mike we heard the president address what would be referred to as a policy change with equipment going to local Law Enforcement authorities. Thats right. A lot has been written and talked about over the course of the last several days about the pentagons socalled 1033 program. Where the humvees, automatic weapons fire, machine guns even are transferred to local and state Law Enforcement agencies around the country. Many of that equipment is not actually military, but bought with grants from the federal government. So either way you look at it, the federal government has assisted in the purchase of many of that equipment. You heard president obama talk about that earlier today. There are now key members of congress as soon as Congress Gets back, they have a Defense Authorization bill in front of them. And there is serious talk of curtailing that program. Thank you, michael. The frustration and anger is apparent in photos like this one. This encounter took place after police told the 18yearold to move during a demonstration. Reverend johnson joins us now. How would you describe the mood right now . Just compared to the way it has been for the last several days . Well, the mood is theres a sense of anticipation and angst. There is still a lot of questions unanswered. And we cant deny the fact there is agitation being experienced on both sides. The longer this goes the more tensionous it becomes. Lets talk about that young man that you felt a need to confront and console. Did you know him . What happened in that moment that you approached him . Well no, i had not met the young man prior to our crossing each others paths, just in that moment. I heard a lot of what he was saying, and there seems to be a little bit of escalation in the situation, and i would see that he was vehemently pained and hurt, and to the point where he was ready to fight. The officers at that time were not playing. They were serious as can be, and there are just some things that happen instinctively that that you just respond. But more importantly as i have said, i saw myself in him. We share an emotion, but we also are on a continuum of how we express it and understand it. So that what was transpired. What was it exactly that you said to him that made him calm down and reconsider a drastic response on his part . Very truthfully i said we need you. This is not the way. Not not to discourage how he felt or even what he was doing, but to help him understand that theres some people who didnt care, and and and didnt care if at that particular moment it was it was it was them against us. So i shared with him, there is another way. I know you are angry. And if you are going to be mad, if you are going to express it, do it with me. Let me encourage you, and i know how you feel. And sometimes in this situation thats what all of these people if of these people, the right people who are doing civil disor bee dense, are gathering around. Woe share a sense of mutual frustration. We know what this means. We have seen what sometimes and how this results with the precedence that have been set. So all of that culminates and accumulates to a point where its hard to contain. But at the same time, hopefully as a mature young man, i felt it important to embrace a young man who was old enough to be my son, and i saw what i have seen so many times before, that they just need to be affirmed in what they are feeling. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and the advice that you gave to him. Obviously advice that is needed out there on the streets as this situation continues. There is much more at the half hour including on how some small towns ended up with bigmilitary style weapons. Do local police have the training to use them . Plus a Big Development over the battle to take back a dam in iraq. In the middle east, a ceasefire between israel and hamas in gaza has been extended another 24 hours. The truce was scheduled to expire three hours ago. The extra day gives diplomats in cairo more time to try to Reach Agreement on a more longterm ceasefire agreement. Nick schifrin joins us. What is the latest on the negotiations . Reporter well, randall publicly were hearing that the two sides have not made progress, but if you talk to officials both sides reveal that they do not want to return to war, and they are revealing that slowly but surely they are making some signs of progress. These are marathon sessions, 10, 12hour sessions. Hamas and israel do not get along, but they are still at the table. Both sides giving some detail. The transfer of building materials, so important. Both siding willing to let those materials in through borders controlled by the Palestinian Authority. Number 2 is that coordination with the Palestinian Authority at border crossings, trying to bring the Palestinian Authority and its officials and forces into gaza, trying to chip away of hamass control. And the fishing zone. So important to in gazans right now. Officials talk about moves the area to eventually 9 of 12, knotical miles. Really this is just an attempt to try to stop the fighting quickly, rather than trying to create a longterm ceasefire. One of the things that israel wants is that gaza being demilitary rised. How is that working . Well, its just not going to happen. And the two sides really are far apart. One israeli official put it to me this way, they are light years apart. Hamas still has thousands of rockets. And israel is not going to take them away. But hamas wants the entire lifting of the israeli siege. That means a completely open space for gazan fisherman to fish. And israelis Officials Say wait a minute, hamas is still declaring war on israel. So thats why the negotiators are in the middle trying to get both sides to at least agree on things. But i have to say for the people of gaza they need a ceasefire desperately. 100,000 people without homes right now. And we heard from robert serie speaking earlier, talking about how a lasting peace could only be created through fundamental improvement in gaza. Nick schifrin thank you very much. Up next, detroits new plea for help. Welcome back to Al Jazeera America. Im randall pinkston. A live look now at the protests in ferguson, missouri, where tensions are again running high. There is no midnight curfew on protesters tonight. The missouris governor has called in the National Guard, and tonight there are new questions about Michael Browns death. His family released an unofficial autopsy report that says that the unarmed teenager was shot at least six times by police. Reporter the Daylight Hours in ferguson had been calm. Marked against demonstrations against the shooting of Michael Brown. The tension in the streets increased on monday. Chance for justice turned to rage as Police Arrested two protesters. As they kept walking i said to them, brothers come over here by me. Come walk by me. You cant intimidate us in order to shut us up so that we will not speak out on it. It took hundreds of years to get to this place, and no one has ever said something unless there is an uproar, so now that you are seeing that, and they are coming out in full force, meaning they are bringing in all of this weaponry to intimidate us into being quiet. Reporter protesters say any trust in Law Enforcement is now entirely eroded. Sunday night police used a barrage of smoke, tear gas, wood pellets and flash bags to depend their post that they say was attacked by molotov cocktails. Groups from around the country have shown up in ferguson, the head of the black lawyers for justice is in washington. He wants to guide the protesters in a positive direction. Somebody has to be here to give these people respect, listened to, know the demands of the people on their side, and listen. If not the the outside will take control. Reporter karl dix of new york city says the protests will not end until justice is served and the people are heard. I am seeing people out there who are angry and standing up and resisting in various ways, and look reporter but are they throwing things at the police . I see the Police Shooting tear gas at people and people trying to throw it back. It is illegitimate to be shooting tear gas at people out here protesting. Thats what is going down. Reporter police have pledged again to keep the peace. Protesters say there wont be peace without justice. Were down we have no shot. Well, we just lost your signal to robert ray. He is keeping watch, and hopefully well be able to get him back later in the forecast. Police in riot gear, and Armored Vehicles firing tear gas have raised questions on whether officers are getting proper training . The federal government has been giving out excess military gear to communities all over the country in the name of antiterror preparedness. What it is doing is making the Police Forces look like occupying armies. [ gunfire ] reporter for decades the United States have been Arming Police departments for battle. Directing the department of defense to hand out socalled surplus equipment to local Law Enforcement. It began in the 1990s as part of the effort to fight drugs. It is called the 1033 program. A total of some 4. 3 billion worth of gear since 1997. But the showdown between protesters and police in ferguson has raised new questions about the program. All the way to the white house. We dont want the lines blurred. That would be contrary to our traditions. And i think there will be some bipartisan interest in reexamining some of those programs. All right critics say one problem is a lack of training. I dont know of the time of training these officers in ferguson received. I would say they received poor training or ignored the good training they received some time ago, or were given no training at all. Reporter ferguson residents told al jazeera that police dont seem to know how to deal with peaceful protests. Were not being heard. Police are telling us we have to do certain things. Actually its poor tactics used by them, or poor training, i dont know. Reporter and even if local Police Forces are being trained, critics wonder whether it is appropriate. At lease some of them have been training with units of our special forces, and this is very disturbing, because our special forces operate overseas in in a theater of battle, and they are not trained to deal with people who have constitutional right,s, people protected by the constitution of the United States. Their missions overseas are to find the enemy force and destroy them. Reporter another potential program with the program is it requires all equipment be used within one year of receiving it, which means if a Police Department wants to keep its new toys it cant wait around for a suitable emergency to deploy them. Its an interesting requirement that you have to use it to keep it . This exactly. Thank you, paul. Todays independent autopsy raised more questions. Ferguson police have said the shooting occurred during a struggle. But some eyewitnesses dispute that. New Technology May help investigators sort out conflicting reports. Crystal has more. Yes. Some answers in ferguson may come from high sensetivety dna analysis. As Michael Browns body lay exposed on a ferguson, missouri street, the clock was already ticking for investigators. According to witnesses a furious struggle had Michael Brown allegedly leaning in and pushing the officer. And police say brown grabbed the policemans gun and a shot went off inside the vehicle. Techknow learned that if he touch the gun, some of his dna would be on the gun. Here in the Colorado Rockies where they are using the latest hightech method to test even the smallest amount of dna, called touch dna. The husband and wife team have worked on many highprofile cases. It comes in the outer layers of skin cells. When you touch someone with force, those cells are shed. He is looking for any irregularity, looking for traces of blood or other bodily fluids. Reporter based on news reports of the crime scene, they raised questions about the quality of evidence and how much would be available for testing. Their methods require only tiny amounts of dna. And whether officer wilson believed he was in danger, making deadly force necessary. That would be determined as well. If brown and officer wilson were close, evidence would be found on their clothing. I just really want to emphasize here that these two are not involved in the current investigation in ferguson, but they are the leading experts in touch dna analysis, and when i visited them this year, they saw their technique solve a 20year cold case of the murder of a teenager girl. Thank you, crystal. The first Time Amnesty International has deployed in the United States. A group has been in ferguson since thursday. They want to make sure the right to peacefully protest is upheld. There is other news we are following on this monday night. The white house says u. S. And Kurdish Forces are making progress in iraq. President obama says government and Kurdish Forces have pushed the group back from key cities and recaptured the countrys largest dam. Nearly half of all u. S. Air strikes were aimed at fighters there. There are fears that if the Islamic State were to destroy the dam, released water could eventually flood bagdad. In yemen tens of thousands of people took to the streets to protest government corruption and a recent spike in fuel prices. The government says the group wants to take over the capitol and rule the country. For several months armed houthis have clashed with go forces ukraine is accusing prorussian separatists of killing dozens of citizens. The separatists deny the attack. Emma hayward reports. Reporter in the town, there is little comfort, only signs of war. These pictures, which appeared on a proseparatists website are said to show the aftermath of shelling. All the people here can do is try to stay as safe as possible. Translator its scary. Very scary. We pop out for a minute to breathe in fresh air, but thats it. We cant do more. We have no water here either. Reporter what is clear here is the worsening humanitarian situation. While the separatists self declared government in donetsk was enforcing strict new laws in the area it now controls. Translator Death Penalty will be for the following crimes first aggravated murder. The murder of two or more people, or child or pregnant woman. Second for military crimes. Third for crimes related to aggravated violation of the codes of war. And the journey to try to reach safety can be a treacherous one. But more people are willing to take the risks. On monday the separatists denied carrying out an attack which killed civilians, but the government gave a detailed account of what it said happened. Translator today, at 9 40 am, terrorists committed a bloody crime near luhansk. They fired at civilians trying to flee the zone of fighting. Many people died including women and children. Reporter while the government account cannot be verified there is still no political solution in site. So the people will continue to have to make impossible choices. Back now to a story we mentioned earlier about ferguson, missouri. And a delegation from Amnesty International being deployed within the borders of the United States of america. They are there to observe treatment of protesters. Jasmine is live in ferguson tonight. Jasmine, you have been there for several days now. First i have to ask, why ferguson, missouri for an organization that is ordinarily known for looking into crises on foreign shores . Well, we have a long history as Amnesty International at looking at human rights around the world and within the borders of the United States. We have looked at Police Brutality issues, and Excessive Force. As you mentioned this particular delegation is unique in that it is the first time we have deployed this kind of crossfunctional team. Im here as a human rights observer, but i have colleagues on the ground playing other critical roles, including trains of of protesters in nonviolent direct action. Were here to support the community and also shine a light on injustices happening here in our backyard. Can you give me an example of some of the encounters or actions that you have observed personally since you have been on the ground in ferguson . Certainly. I think that the thing that has become the most clear since we have arrived on thursday night until now is that the community doesnt feel heard. Because of that or rather you know, as an em bah mattic example of that the police and other authorities have used Excessive Force against peaceful protesters. Things like unloading police dogs when people are simply marching down the street. Seeing snipers on the roofs of buildings. Thesing kinds of clear militarization of the space further antagonizes a community that is crying for justice and mourning for the loss of one of its members. Do you think the presence of the National Guard will help or hurt the situation . Well, given the increased militarization of the policing with the deployment of the National Guard, our already existing concerns about accountability on the part of Law Enforcement have only risen. Also when we see militarized Police Action take place, our primary calls are for justice, transparency and any officers who are involved in any Human Rights Violations to be held accountable, and where prosecutions are necessary to be prosecuted. We call for a swift, thorough, independent, impartial, and transparent investigation into the death of Michael Brown, and we ask that his community be made aware of the steps being taken into the investigation of his death. Here is another question, who is focusing on the people who have been accused, as few as they may be, accused of throwing molotov cocktails, of showing up to nonviolent protests with weapons . Who is focusing on keeping the troublemakers, if you will, from up ending peaceful protests . Well, that certainly is the beauty of a human rights framework. Were looking at the human rights of all parties involved, including the police officer. We continue to be concerned with the actions of few, the authorities are taking the steps to undermine the rights of many. I would say think most important thing to remember is the community of ferguson, missouri, within that community there is an incredible commitment to nonviolence and peaceful protest, and these people in the wake of repeated aggression, and heavy handed tactics are waking up every morning and committing and recommitting to nonviolence. There were instances where protesters or nonprotesters have turned to violence. And we also ask that Police Respond with force that is proportional and necessary in response to the threats that they are faces. And that is true here and around the world. Jasmine, thank you very much. Well be keeping watch on your observations in the coming days. Coming up, hunger in america. Military families who can barely afford to eat. One of the biggest hospital groups in the United States says it has been hit by a cyber attack from china. It says the Social Security numbers of 4. 5 Million People splay been compromised. It owns and or leases hospitals across the United States. The company says the hacked data did not include medical information or credit card numbers. New numbers out about hunger in america. 46 Million People relied on food panties last year to feed their families, and many of those americans are military veterans. Roxana saberi has more. Reporter the line runs long at this food pantry in texas, and doesnt open for another two hours. Good morning, everyone. Good morning. We have a big panty today. Pantries like this are helping feed more than 46 million americans each year, many are veterans. Joann is unemployed, her husband is a army mechanic. She said they can barely afford to eat. Around 20 of the food banks clients come from military households. Some include members on active duty. Veterans groups point out that the Unemployment Rate for post 9 11 veterans is around 9 , and around 12 of homeless adults are soldiers. Our soldiers are coming home and not being able to field their families. Reporter groups told al jazeera that Mental Health and Substance Abuse often prevent soldiers from working. The Defense Department told us it doesnt keep track of the number of military families using food pantries, but they say pay is competitive. Veterans groups say the government needs to do more to hows, employ, and feed military families. I dont think this is really fair. Reporter i also spoke with the food bank for new york city. It said that 40 of the citys veterans use a soup kitchen or food pantry. Coming up at 11 00, well talk to the executive director of the National Veteran association about how the military is helping struggling families. Dodge from detroits floods could reach 1 billion. Reporter once the final tally is in, local Officials Say the destruction caused by the historic flood that paralyzed the Metro Detroit area has paralyzed the area. Im in warren, michigan, one of the hardesthit areas. A week after the storms there are many residents who are still recovering. And for some its a process that could take months. On a scale of 1 to 20, probably 22. Reporter rising water caused gretchens basement wall to cave in. She has homeowners insurance, but it does not cover floods. This woman called this house heem for five years. Now its condemned. She and her two sons are living in this tent for now. She also didnt have Flood Insurance but after talking to the governor, she is hopeful federal relief will arrive. He said they are going to work hard to get the money here. Reporter with a third of the citys homes and businesses damaged by water, warren mayor, says the federal government has got to come through. Im hoping, you know, they can help us. Because this is a financial catastrophe for not only myself but our community. Reporter fema is evaluating the devastation, but no word yet on whether help is on the way. Bisi onileere, al jazeera, detroit coming up at 11 00 eastern, eric holder is heading to ferguson, missouri. Ill talk with a journalist about his recent article, what matters in ferguson.
