This is a roll call! SEAN BELL! Then she followed with "Absent again today! OSCAR GRANT! Absent again today! REKIA BOYD! Absent again today! RAMARLEY GRAHAM!" She paused, and at that point the rest of us knew exactly what to do. "Absent again today!" "AIYANA JONES!" "Absent again today!" "FREDDIE GRAY!" "Absent again today!" "MICHAEL BROWN!" "Absent again today!" "TAMIR RICE!" "Absent again today!" "ERIC GARNER!" "Absent again today!" "TARIKA WILSON!" "Absent again today!" And Spoony kept feeding Berry the papers, one after another, as she continued to read down the list of unarmed black people killed by the police.
