This photo was used on the cover of The Roots' Things Fall Apart album. In this photo, two Black women are running away from the police in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn during a riot in the 1960s.
Tallahassee continues to experience violent interactions with the police. In the coming days, those interactions will be explored.
This photo serves as a reminder that Black pain and anger does not erase over time. It has been etched into history, lives, and physical landscapes.
