Definitely worth watching: Broadway responds to NYPD chokehold death with poetry
Over 100 Broadway stars, directors, producers, musicians, choreographers, designers and technicians gathered in front of the New York Police Department in Times Square to protest the death of Eric Garner by performing a powerful poem. Mr. Garner was killed on July 17, 2014, by NYPD officers who put him into a chokehold and ignored his repeated plea of “I can’t breathe.” A bystander videotaped the police, recording the excessive force that resulted in Mr. Garner’s death.
