I cannot even begin to fathom the pain of a parent who loses a child to state sponsored violence and then finding the strength to struggle for justice in the name of that child, day after day. In this video testimony, the parents of Sean Bell, killed by the NYPD in 2006, speak out on what justice looks like to them.

wow. I hadn’t heard of this story. I did follow the Jena 6 story though, and when I saw it I thought “that name sounds familiar.” Turns out one of the Jena 6 student’s names was Mychal Bell. It’s sad when there are so many stories of injustice the names run together in your head.
