For GQ’s December issue, we visited the fathers and father figures of six Black victims of police brutality, including Joe Louis Cole, the father of Daniel Prude.

Early in the morning of March 23, 2020, Prude, 41, underwent a mental-health episode and ran out of his brother’s Rochester home wearing only long johns and a tank top. After police located him, they covered his head in a spit hood, handcuffed him, and held his body against the pavement. Prude was taken to a hospital and declared dead a week later—a death the autopsy ruled a homicide. Cole says he will never again tell his family to depend on law enforcement. “That's just like telling them to jump into the lion cage,” he says. “And that's sad. It's real sad.” 

Swipe right to read Joe Louis Cole, in his own words, reflect on the violence that forever altered his family’s lives—and what it means to raise a Black man in America. Tap the link in bio to read “Visible Men: Black Fathers Talk About Losing Sons to Police Brutality.”
