In this June 30, 2017, photo, Shetamia Taylor wipes a tear from her eye during an interview at her home in Garland, Texas. Taylor was shot on July 7, 2016, when a sniper opened fire at a Black Lives Matter protest in downtown Dallas. Police officers quickly shielded her from more incoming rounds after she was struck by a bullet. A year later, her wound has largely healed, but the trauma inflicted on Taylor’s family still lingers. She hopes her experience as a black woman whose life was saved by police at the protest helps bridge the racial gap that separates many police officers and black Americans. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez)
