April 17th: Brent Miller Dies (Herman Wallace and Albert Woodfox)(1974)
Sometimes people who make waves have targets placed on their backs. On April 17th 1972 a young man was brutally slain and two men with targets on their back were placed in solitary confinement for the crime. A place they would remain for decades while many fought to prove their innocence.
