Hi Friends,
This week I wanted to share my thoughts on Tyreek Hill and the police actions against him during a traffic stop. There are so many horrific encounters and attacks on black people by police on things that should be as routine as traffic stops. There are more names than can be counted from Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Mike Brown, Eric Garner, Sonya Massey, these are some of the most egregious and high profile cases that most, including myself would have thought would lead to change but did not.
My hope is that change can come but it won't be by waiting for something sad enough or illegal enough to make lawmakers change the law. The just department has already found that basically every police department they've investigated has a confirmed bias against people of color with little change at a time.
I also talk about trying to be a good samaritan and it going horribly wrong.
If you love my stories I have a podcast that comes out every week: https://bit.ly/3NQmpio
