Eric Garner

The Eric Garner jersey was the third in the series. The killings of Eric Garner followed by Mike Brown marked the moment this project becoming a series and not a one-off idea. One detail on this jersey is the “Courtesy Professionalism Respect” motto that is painted on every NYPD vehicle. The jersey number, 43, represents Garner’s age at the time of the incident, as does the number of each jersey in the project.
