Video Evidence
Video documentation was absolutely everywhere in 2014! Whether it was of a woman being punched in the face and dragged out of an elevator unconscious, a Ferguson, MO police officer standing over a black teen’s dead body, or an NYPD officer choking a black man to death despite his pleas, unobstructed videos of violence and brutality later to be ignored by those in the highest seats of power wouldn’t stop popping up in our feeds this year.
