In Chicago, jury selection is underway in the murder trial of white police officer Jason Van Dyke, who’s charged in the killing of 17-year-old African American Laquan McDonald in October of 2014. The killing was captured on a police dash cam video released under court order, which clearly contradicted police claims about the shooting. The video shows the teenager posing no threat and walking away from the officers before Van Dyke opened fire 16 times. On Wednesday, about 100 protesters gathered near the Cook County criminal courthouse as the trial got underway. This is activist William Calloway.

William Calloway: “And if he’s acquitted, it’s not just going to be the South Side, it’s not just going to be the West Side, but it’s going to be every side of this city that’s going to rise up and that’s going to demand justice and shut this city down!”
