In the summer of 2020, sixteen-year-old Antonio Mays Jr. traveled a thousand miles to join the racial justice movement of his generation in the wake of George Floyd's killing. Antonio arrived in Seattle during the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest, known as CHOP. Less than a week later, he was shot and killed there. The case remains unsolved.
In this eight-part series, hosts Sydney Brownstone of
The Seattle Times and Will James of KUOW team up with NPR's
Embedded to investigate Antonio's death. They track down key eyewitnesses and surface crucial evidence that's never been made public.
