I remember being pregnant with my first child when Abner Louima was assaulted by the NYPD and feeling worried that I would have a boy, a boy in a city where brown boys grow up feeling that they can be shot at a moment’s notice. That bullet can come from generic street crime or from the police.

I gave birth to a girl but 12 years later the fears are the same.


I AM SEAN BELL, black boys speak from Stacey Muhammad on Vimeo.
