Justice for Laquan Mcdonald

The murder of Laquan Mcdonald by Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke actuated profound reactions. Once the murder(video) began to spread, protesting immediately followed in all parts of Chicago such as the Downtown and the Southside of Chicago. The murder supposedly occurred in 2014 but the crime was silenced by the parents of the Laquan with the $500,000 in collateral. This negotiation was said that Rahm Emmanuel voted to silence the death of Laquan between officials, Jason Van Dyke, and the Mcdonald's parents. Not only has this phenomena show how young black lives are a target, but also how racism still surfaces and affects an individual's daily actions.
