From Isaac Holloway: I am 22 years old with a degree in political science from Virginia Commonwealth University. At VCU I became a member of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc and I was active in serving the campus and local community. The case of Aiyana Jones is yet another example of law enforcements disregard for black life. Unfortunately what the black community has neglected to do was begin to take serious steps to safeguard our communities from we know to be a hostile force. Aiyana's case is about galvanizing us to be more active in policing the police and holding them responsible for their actions against us. Releasing the video taken by the 48 hours film crew will show exactly what happened in term of what the police knew prior to entering the Jones residence how that entry was conducted as well as providing a timeline and a means to prove the statements given by the police and the family.
