1. NEWFER_150110_05.JPG: Protesting Ferguson: Ferguson has become a one-word rallying cry for debate about race relations and the use of deadly force by police in America. The recent grand jury decisions not to indite white police officers for the deaths of black men in Ferguson, Mo., and New York ignited outrage across the country following months of protests over the killings of the unarmed men. In August 2014, Michael Brown, 18, was killed by a police officer in Ferguson who said he stopped Brown for jaywalking but shot him in a confrontation after linking him to a nearby theft. Eric Garner, 43, died the previous month when a New York police officer put him in a chokehold after stopping him on suspicion of selling untaxed cigarettes. In scenes that evoke the anti-war and civil rights movements of the 1950s and 1960s, protesters are using their First Amendment rights to assemble and petition for change. News coverage of a protests has sparked a national debate about race and the criminal justice system.

Description of Subject Matter: Make Some Noise
By Dinah Douglas, assistant Web writer

WASHINGTON — The Newseum opened two new exhibits Aug. 2 on the U.S. civil rights movement that highlighted the contributions and struggles of students.
With the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington approaching on Aug. 28, the timely exhibits underscore how organizers in the movement used the media to garner public support.
"Make Some Noise: Students and the Civil Rights Movement" takes visitors through a timeline of events that defined the movement and its student organizers, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). ....
Adjacent to "Make Some Noise," the "Civil Rights at 50" exhibit of newspaper front pages and magazine covers, captures the turbulence of the 1963 through events such as the Children's Crusade in Birmingham, Ala., and the assassination in Mississippi of civil rights leader Medgar Evers. The display shows media coverage as it really happened, including press biases and prejudices. "Civil Rights at 50" will be updated in 2014 and 2015.

2015 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used my Fuji XS-1 camera but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. I retired from the US Census Bureau in god-forsaken Suitland, Maryland on my 58th birthday in May. Yee ha! Trips this year: a quick trip to Florida. two Civil War Trust conferences (Raleigh, NC and Richmond, VA), and my 10th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles). Ego Strokes: Carolyn Cerbin used a Kevin Costner photo in her USA Today article. Miss DC pictures were used a few times in the Washington Post. Number of photos taken this year: just over 550,000.
