Dinerral "Dick" Shavers (born c. 1981, died 28 December 2006) was a jazz drummer and educator from New Orleans, Louisiana. Shavers was best known musically as a founding member of the Hot 8 Brass Band. He also taught at a local high school and created music programs for poor local youths. He appeared in the Spike Lee film ''When the Levees Broke'' discussing the devastation of his family home in the Lower 9th Ward. According to the ''Times-Picayune'':
It was later revealed in the ''Times-Picayune'' that he was not the intended target. New Orleans Police said the teenager who shot him actually meant to kill Shavers' 15-year-old stepson in a dispute stemming from a neighborhood feud. His murder, along with a spate of other violent crimes against New Orleans citizens within the same week, sparked a massive protest march on New Orleans City Hall on January 11, 2007. Shavers' murder by a teenager was also discussed in the sequel, ''If God Is Willing and Da Creek Don't Rise'', directed by Spike Lee. The HBO series ''Treme'' alluded to Shavers' murder in episodes four and five of the second season. ==See also== * Helen Hill 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dinerral Shavers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
