TAPECODE 075.00

"Isaac Julien's short video, sets the Roach Family's personal tragedy in the context of the political campaign around Colin's death, and builds the case for an independent inquiry from some powerful interviews -particularly with Mrs. Roach- in which a broader analysis of law, police and state harassment take shape." Paul Gilroy (review from City Limits' Magazine Sept. 1983)
