New America Media/ YO! Youth Outlook, Video, Ann Bassette & Min Lee, Posted: Jan 29, 2010

Editor's Note: One year after a BART police officer fatally shot 22-year-old Oscar Grant, BART reached a $1.5 million settlement with the mother of his five-year-old daughter. Grant's daughter will be supported by a $1.5 million trust fund to be paid out throughout the next twenty-five years. New America Media caught up with John Burris, attorney for the Oscar Grant family, for his reaction.
