This short documentary, I Am Sean Bell: Black Boys Speak by Stacey Muhammad is exactly what it sounds like. Black boys (between the ages of 11 and 13), along with their parents, speak about the brutal murder of Sean Bell by police officers, the effect it has had on their communities, and their heartbreaking fear, spurned by growing up as young black men in our racist society, of Sean Bell’s fate someday being theirs.
It’s definitely worth a watch. But be warned that it does contain some scenes of graphic violence.
