USA: Activists Slam Police Violence in Chicago
- 8 years ago
Indignation once again surges in the African American community after no charges were pressed against a police officer seen shooting young Ronald Johnson. Just weeks ago, a video was released of a police officer shooting another African-American youth 16 times in the back. In this case, the officer posted bond and awaits trial in freedom. The whole police department needs to be dismantled from the bottom up and the top down, says one Black Lives Matter activist. The Justice Department announced on Monday that it will be investigating the Chicago Police Department. Bianca Perez reports from Washington DC for teleSUR.
