Sean Bell Family Still Gripped By Grief | News One

Sean Bell Family Still Gripped By Grief News One:

"

<>>>><<><><><><><><<>>

The Bell family, including Sean’s mother Valerie and

would-be wife Nicole, made a special appearance on the panel —

moderated by Terrie Williams, author of “Black Pain,

” and including other victims of personal tragedies.

Valerie Bell spoke about the painful, viscera

l connection with her son the night he died.

She had never felt labor pains with Sean, she said,

having given birth by Cesarean section.

But on the night of his murder, she said, “that was the night

I felt my labor pains.” William Bell discussed the difficulty

of expressing emotion for some Black men, but readily

admitted that he weeps openly. From birth, Black men are told

: suck it up. Don’t show emotion,” Williams responded.

Also on the panel was Donna Hood,

mother of Kevin Lamont Miller Jr., a 13-year-old bullet

killed by a stray bullet in Queens.“It’s come to a point where we expect,

it’s okay to bury our children,” she said, breaking into tears.

At one point, Williams asked every mother and father in

the audience who has lost a child to stand up. About six did,

and she invited them all to the podium to tell their stories.

One man shared the story of his own son that was shot

and killed. As he left the podium, William Bell stood up to

embrace the man, revealing on his back an

artist’s drawing of his son Sean."
