In 1991, Latasha Harlins, a 15-year-old African American girl, was shot in the head and killed at her local L.A. grocery store. Her death, which happened just 13 days after the Rodney King beating, garnered little lasting attention. Black girls continue to be the targets of widespread violence with minimal accountability systems in place.

UCLA historian Brenda Stevenson, Loyola Law School Associate Professor Priscilla Ocen, and UCLA legal scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw discuss how this case illuminates the vulnerability of black girls and how communities can serve and protect them. Moderated by Laura Flanders.
