Four years ago this month, Shantel Davis, 23-year-old Black woman, was brutally shot and murdered by NYPD detective “bad boy” Phillip Atkins. Shantel was at her grandmother’s researching college programs just hours before.  
Shantel’s family, Progressive Labor Party, friends, residents, and community groups had protested in the streets every saturday for months, then every month—rain or shine. One of the chants were, “We will always remember Shantel. We’ll always fight for Shantel, we’ll never forget Shantel.”
In the Flatbush neighborhood, we have helped build a group called “The Justice for Shantel Davis Committee,” which also organizes an annual youth basketball tournament at Tilden Park.
In Shantel’s name, join the four-year commemoration of her life and the antiracist, antisexist fightback that grew out of this police killing.
We are meeting at the site of the killing: E. 38 Street and Church Ave, Brooklyn, NY on Tuesday, June 14 at 7 PM.
