Murder of Rolan Adams
1991 murder in England
Rolan Adams was a Black British boy who was murdered as the result of a racist hate crime in 1991. He is frequently associated in connection to Stephen Lawrence, another teenager from a neighbouring area in south-east London, who was later killed in a similar incident. The deaths of these teenagers influenced the public view of racially motivated attacks in south-east London at the time.
