The small community of Ferguson, Missouri is still recovering from the economic fallout following weeks of protests and riots in August and November of 2014. The social unrest began after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white police officer two years ago. Dozens of businesses were vandalized and damaged. VOA's Chris Simkins reports from Ferguson there are signs of some progress but the community still faces economic challenges.
