I’m old enough to remember the 1990s violence crisis in New York City and what it was like to live in fear of getting slashed or shot on the way home from school. When our East Flatbush apartment got broken into, I wondered for months if it would happen again (it did).

Four years ago today, was killed in Crown Heights by NYPD officers while having a mental health crisis. Saheed’s life is more than his death and we pause today to honor the gifts he gave the world: kindness, generosity, friendship and pure love.

Join us today in lifting up Saheed as our community hero—we will never recover from the pain of his death, but with time we are learning to celebrate how he lived.
