A mother and her three young children were trapped inside an upside-down SUV that was filling with water in a Florida canal.
One of the little boys was banging on the door, screaming that his momโs head was underwater.
Thatโs when Casey Curtis heard the cries and ran toward the canal. He reached the submerged SUV and started pulling the children out one by one, getting all three to safety.
But their mother was still inside.
Casey went back to the vehicle and found her unconscious, still buckled into her seat with her head underwater. He lifted her face above the water, realized she wasnโt breathing and gave her a breath right there in the canal.
She started breathing again.
The mother spent several days in intensive care, but she survived. All three of her children survived too.
Those kids watched a stranger pull them from a sinking SUV, then turn around and go back into the water for their mom when she couldnโt save herself. Casey Curtis is the kind of person people should know about.
I remember the controversy this photo caused when it hit the internet. We didn't know, but MBJ knew it could be the last time he got to love on and embrace his brother.
A reminder to never miss a moment to show love to your people.

Kaep details the call, his one request, and the fallout that followed
Her tire blew out. She pulled into a gas station, locked the doors, and waited for her family to come help.
When police arrived she was unconscious in the driver's seat.
They broke the window and fired twenty-three shots into the car.
Tyisha Miller. Riverside, California, December 1998. She was 19.
She was hit twelve times. Four officers fired.
No one was charged with anything. A grand jury declined. The Justice Department reviewed it and closed it.
The four officers were eventually fired by the city โ and the police union fought that, too.
A nineteen-year-old waiting for roadside assistance, asleep behind a locked door, in a car that was not going anywhere.
Twenty-three shots. Riverside changed its entire police department after this, under state supervision. That is what it cost.
You know what happened to Tyisha Miller. But what happened to the hundreds of other cases that never became national headlines?
We went looking. The result is 150 Crimes Against Black America They Never Answered Forโa collection of cases that deserve more than a paragraph in an archive.
