From Trayvon Martin To George Floyd, A Dad And Son Keep Protesting For Equality
Albert and Aidan Sykes, a father and son who are black, have protested against racial injustice for years. What makes this moment especially tough, says Aidan, 14,"is knowing that could have been me."
Aidan Sykes was just 6 years old when he joined his dad, Albert, to protest the killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. They've been attending protests against racial injustice ever since.
In a conversation recorded at StoryCorps five years ago, Albert told Aidan, then 9, that one of the reasons he brings him to protests is to show him "what it looks like when people come together."
