Miami’s biggest anti-gun-violence activist loses her son in a senseless killing. BY TREVOR BACH

n a rainy Thursday morning in August, Tangela Sears parks her Mitsubishi SUV in front of a small yellow house on a quiet street in Liberty City. Her grandfather bought the home O tage | a rt | Culture | Film D ish m usi C about six decades ago. Sears was raised there. She raised her own son David there, too, and had long planned to pass the house on to him as a financial safeguard in case something ever happened to her. Sears, who is 49 years old, with dimpled, full cheeks and a pe- tite frame, walks silently up the driveway. She wears a black head wrap over her hair, a loose T-shirt, and shorts. A longtime political consultant and community activist, she’s known for her tenacity and vivaciousness, but today her large brown eyes are eerily vacant. She’s more than an hour late for a meeting with a reporter, but barely seems aware that time exists at all. “Some days are better than others,” she says a few minutes later, her voice slow and somber. “I was raised in the church, and we were taught to love. But it’s a lot of hatred. It’s a lot of bitterness. And it’s turned me into a different person.” For two decades, nobody has been a stronger or more consistent advocate in Miami’s black community. Sears has fought tirelessly on issues such as HIV, education, and, especially, gun violence, developing a unique rapport with politicians and the vulnerable community

they often struggle to reach. She has organized panels and confer- New Times Broward-palm B each ences, appeared frequently in the media, and provided unceasing love and support to dozens of shooting victims and their families. “She tries to give a voice to the voiceless,” says Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle, a close friend. “And she’s done a wonderful job.”

But Sears has also weathered her own tragedies. Her brother MIAMI NEW TIMES lost his life to the AIDS crisis. Her mother died after a botched illicit silicone injection. And now she’s fallen victim to exactly the kind of senseless violence she’s spent years fighting: David, her only child, was killed in a shooting this past May in Tallahassee. His death came amid a national surge in violence. Homicide rates have climbed this year in more than 30 major cities, from Baltimore to St. Louis to Milwaukee, prompting worries that a decades-long downward trend in murders could be reversing. In Miami, too, it’s been a bloody few months. This past May, one teenager was killed and four others wounded after being shot during a craps game in a M ONTH O

ears has always been a unifier. And feisty. She was born in 1965, after her Smother Vera got pregnant as a 16-year- old high-school student. But Sears didn’t meet her real dad until she was a teenager. Because her grandfather didn’t accept his daughter’s

browardpalmbeach.com to stay away from the family; a few years later, Vera got married to another man, who Sears was always led to believe was her father.

For nearly three hours, she vacillated between utter despondency and pure rage. “When you have lost your mother, your father, your brother — your child is your world,” she said. “I’ve had a lot of suicidal thoughts... because I can’t understand why am I still here?” In Tallahassee, Mason was charged with second-degree murder just days after the shooting. Prosecutors didn’t believe his claims of self-defense. “The victim and suspect are similar in stat- ure and size,” a Tallahassee detective wrote in a probable cause affidavit. “There were no weapons found on or about the victim. [David] was not observed by any witnesses displaying a weapon. Given the facts above, this investigator cannot find a justification in this case to warrant the taking of another’s life based upon a verbal altercation.” For days after her son’s death, Sears said, she sent him texts, praying against all real- ity that a message would come back. She often can’t sleep, she said, haunted by the image of her son’s body in the morgue. After years of fighting violence, Sears said, she was trying to stay strong — but she was on an emotional roller )YV^HYKPU coaster, and sometimes the anger was overwhelming.
