This season we turn to the aftermath of  Amadou Diallo's killing, an unarmed Black man who was shot by four white officers in the Bronx on February 4, 1999.

They fired 41 bullets at Amadou while he stood in his doorway. Nineteen hit him. The first likely killed him.

Amadou's killing resulted in one of the biggest trials in New York's history. It led to the conviction of a Bronx serial rapist who had been on the loose for six years. And it inspired art and music.

In this episode, we uncover the story behind the mural honoring Amadou, its controversial unveiling, and why eventually, a new mural replaced it 16 years later.
