Adama Traore’s sister thanked the American television channel BET for this prize, welcoming her militant action against racism and police violence.
Assa Traoré, an emblematic figure in the fight against police violence and racism since the death of her brother Adama, “killed” according to her by the French police, received this Sunday June 28 in the United States the BET prize Global Good.
Assa Traoré, 35, thanked BET, an American television channel that awards prizes to African-American or minority figures, saying that it was “recognition”.
“It is a recognition for all the victims, for all the families who never stop fighting for truth and justice,” she said in a video message broadcast during a virtual award ceremony.
