It’s been dubbed “the murder that changed a nation”. In 1993, Stephen Lawrence, a Black British teenager, became the victim of an unprovoked racist attack. The subsequent legal battle, which spanned more than 20 years, uncovered a legacy of institutional racism within the Metropolitan Police, leaving a lasting mark on the British conscience.

Stephen Lawrence younger brother was my teacher in secondary school, when he spoke of his older brother tragic murder there was this sadness in his eyes. May he rest in paradise and May this never happen again 💜

19 years watching the men who killed your son, laugh and spit at you. I do not know if I would have had this woman's strength.

The video omits the fact that police corruption was also a factor. There were officers working the case that were connected to the suspects.

You literally go into the park tavern down in eltham and ask the old blokes in there they’ll know who did it and where they lived. Everyone in Eltham knew exactly who they were and so did the police.

Not alot being said about the direct targeting of the Lawrence family by the met police. A constant level of surveillance on the family members to build a case to discredit them. My family know the Lawrences and they been through some absolute bullshit at the hand of the met police.

Those sociopaths were walking into and out of court with so much arrogance and pride for being murders of a black man. How sick and sad

His brother came to give a speech at our school. Everybody in the audience was captivated. His story has truly touched all our hearts ❤

Nobody can win over a Mum fighting for her child even if it takes decades. Mum is a warrior.

The way the police acted as aiding and abetting, some of them should be charged.

She is an amazing woman who through her immense pain has made enormous needed change of a nation embedded in racism. My sympathies and huge amount of respect go out and reside with her!

Never underestimate a mother’s love for her child. It’s enough to change the world.

Can we all just say, massive massive props to the daily mail for supporting this campaign for so long. I don't agree with everything they do but certainly this was fantastic.

This is is why people have very little faith in police, no mater the country.

The British still have such deep rooted racism in their society, Rashmi Samant case in one of the recent case where she was hounded online after becoming the President Of Oxford Student Union, not only by students but even the professor who teaches as such a famous institution posted racist and defamatory posts on Facebook, the professor also didn't spare her parents, her religious beliefs while making such a post on Facebook. Racism looks to be in all institutions in UK.
