However, set against the backdrop of typical teen life, of community and family life, the consequences of the officer's actions and the actions others take after the tragedy take on a life and power beyond what any think piece or talking points on the subjectВ could achieve. The scenarios that revolve around the shooting are achingly routine - unarmed African American, the media's push to blame the victim, a lax investigation, and a lack of charges or convictions.
