13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
I Can't Breathe
A young woman holds a sign reading "I Can't Breathe" during the Millions March protest in New York City. On Dec.13, 2014 nationwide actions against police killings and racial profiling included a "Millions March" that drew tens of thousands to the streets of New York City. It was the largest single protest of the post-Ferguson movement and the culmination of daily actions in New York City since a grand jury elected not to indict the police officer who killed Eric Garner. Eric Garner's choking death was captured on cellphone video, and his last words were "I can't breathe".
