Reflecting the situation in Ferguson, the cover features people holding their hands in the air. The sign of surrender to the police has also become a sign of solidarity for those protesting the death of Michael Brown, who many believe also had his hands up when he was gunned down by police officer Darren Wilson on August 9.
