Sonya Massey’s family demands justice after police shot Massey in the face in a brutal murder caught on bodycam. Sonia Massey, a Black woman in Illinois who called police for assistance with a potential intruder, is one of over 700 people killed by police this year, making 2024 one of the deadliest years for police killings since 2013.
Sean Blackmon, host of Darker Than Blue LIVE on WPFW 89.3 FM, places the killing of Sonya Massey in the broader context of racist police killings that continue unabated four years after George Floyd.
“We never talk about the root of the police as an institution, the fact that they come out of slavery and that to this very day, in the 21st century, they basically do the very same thing. Ain’t nothing change but the technology.” –@SeanBlackmon9
