WARNING: CHIME #1 (skip ahead 1 minute) By the time I'm like this far to him, like, I'm here Officer Brown there. By the time my feet hit the second step, all I hear is pop, pop, pop, pop, pop. And I'm like, fall back, like what's going on? My daughter Shameka, she told the story, Because my daughter was standing right there looking. she watched everything. And she told me that it was like a little tussle thing. You know, Kaldrick jumped back in the tub, just probably afraid. And I don't know, if it was a battle or what, He shot him, then he grabbed him around and he laid him down to the floor. The last thing I heard Kaldrick say was, Meka, go get my mama.

Titles in the series (94)

Webby & New York Festival Award Winning series focusing on the assault and killing of Black people by police and in ‘Stand Your Ground’ states, highlighting incidents throughout the United States. Serving as a memorialization for these individuals, we learn about who these people were through the the words of the people that knew them best, while also helping us understand what these situations do to their families and communities not only in the immediate aftermath, but also what happens when the news-cycle moves on and the social media attention shifts focus. We offer solutions, spread awareness and support for these families & communities, including a crowdfunding campaign throughout the series to directly benefit the families impacted by these incidents (they receive 100% of those proceeds), so that we can make an immediate tangible difference.
