We know about Ferguson's police brutality because of Vine
Would the United States be talking about police brutality as much as it is today without Vine?
It's a fair question to ask on Thursday, after Twitter announced it was ending the short-form video app.
SEE ALSO:Police use facial recognition much more than you realizeIn Ferguson, Missouri, residents gathered in communities and city streets after an officer there fatally shot a teenager named Mike Brown in August, 2014.
Protests followed, and news of the police response -- tear gas, assault rifles, armored vehicles -- soon ripped through social media, even though there was no Periscope or Facebook Live, and Snapchat was not yet a platform for news outlets.

Demonstrators turned to Vine, and some of the most jaw-dropping and heart-warming images from Ferguson weren't images at all, but six-second videos that captured the fright, chaos, community, love and anger of the city throughout that month.

Many first heard about the protests in Ferguson because of those videos.

And demonstrators were keenly aware of how important it was.
I'll always love Vine b/c that was all we really had in protest in the the Fall 2014. There was no Twitter video & no Periscope back then.

We had to figure out how find the most important six seconds in protest & Vine was our only way to share it quickly.

Vine offered first-hand, authentic video documentation of protest without the need for news crews and giant cameras. It gave demonstrators a voice that resonated beyond text.
