As protesters took to the streets of Ferguson Monday night, one image, showing a protester standing alone in in an attempt to block police vehicles, was compared by some Twitter users to the iconic 1989 photographs of the Tiananmen Square 'Tank Man'.

A night of unrest followed a grand jury’s decision that Officer Darren Wilson would not be charged in the shooting death of unarmed teenager Michael Brown.
