Title
Family and friends of Yong Xin Huang address a news team
Description
A person in a white suit speaks into the receiver of a megaphone being held by CAAAV organizer Alexandra Suh. Next to them are Yong Xing Huang's mother, three sisters, and high school friend on crutches. In the background, more CAAAV supporters, and what appears to be a news truck parked, are visible. A boom mic is being held by someone off-camera to the left.
This was captured at the memorial for Yong Xin Huang, a teenager who was shot and killed by the police in Brooklyn while playing outside with a BB gun. The vigil was organized by CAAAV a day before what would have been his seventeenth birthday.
