They always used a mugshot if they could find one
failing that a photo with a menacing sneer or brandishing a gun
(“Brandishing” always sounded scarier than “playing”)
Never ever a smile
a proud graduation photo
hugging their mother
anything to show that this was a human being cut down by bullets or a baton
What was so difficult about acknowledging the humanity lost?
Why was saying a life mattered a revolutionary act?
