Weiss asks Kramer to attend a protest for justice for Henry in the hope of finding witnesses there. Kramer arrives at the demonstration site in the Bronx with detectives Martin and Goldberg. They spot a Black young man on the streets, fixing a hubcap. Martin aggressively questions the man, asking him what he is doing on a deserted road in the middle of the afternoon. The man moves away. Kramer feels Martin’s behavior shows why Black and Latino people are suspicious of the police. At the same time, he admires Martin’s bravado. Protestors, white and Black, begin arriving at the site. Peter Fallow is around as well. Initially, Peter is disappointed to see only 30 people at the demonstration. However, as the afternoon proceeds, TV crews and other newspaper reporters gather, and the crowd swells. Reverend Bacon and Annie Lamb address the crowd.
