Adrianna Younge, an 11-year-old schoolgirl from Guyana, was found dead in a hotel pool after disappearing during a family trip. This tragic incident has prompted widespread mourning, protests, and calls for justice within Caribbean communities in the U.S., the UK, and Guyana. Community members question the official ruling of accidental drowning, especially given inconsistencies regarding her disappearance. Family and advocates fear a cover-up linked to the hotel’s ownership, leading to significant public backlash that resulted in a police commander being placed on leave and the hotel being burned down, reflecting the community's anger and demand for accountability.
"They say she drowned - but did she drown in that pool? Because that pool was searched, over and over again. And she wasn't there."
"This is not just about Adrianna; it's about a system that allows violence and injustice to prevail, and we demand significant changes in how these cases are handled."
