The Male Sandra Bland
I want to touch on this case. Since the Sandra Bland case has been receiving national attention, there is another case similar to hers that is not getting any news coverage. A Native American name Rexdale W. Henry was arrested by the police for a minor traffic fine and five days later he was found dead in his cell on July 14th, just one day after Sandra Bland in a Mississippi jail.

Just like Sandra Bland who was an activist in her community, he too was an activist in his. He was a member of the Choctaw tribe. According to a police report he was seen alive at 9:30 am and just 30 minutes he was found dead in his cell. No details about his death have been given out tot he public.
His story is slowly being picked up on social media. There is a Facebook group
demanding justice for his death.
