"A shooting death that has captured the nation's attention and sparked debate about police use of force took a dramatic turn Monday, when the Toronto officer involved in Sammy Yatim's killing was charged with second-degree murder and the victim's family issued its most critical statement yet." Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian of The Young Turks discuss the story and contrast the response to the shooting to the way we typically handle things in the United States.
This blog stays updated with cases of Police Brutality against Black Men and the Black Community. These are just the cases that we are fortunate enough to hear about. But, there are several "unsung victims" whose story has never been told or videotaped. Infamous cases such as Rodney King and Oscar Grant are not isolated incidents. They exist amongst a corrupt system of impunity. Who am I? I am a “Concerned Member of the Black Community.”
