THIS IS WHY I SHARE WITH YOU. YOU CAN RESIST NOW. YOU CAN DISRUPT NOW.
What if itâs something beyond your daily interactions at school? What if itâs something outside of the comfort of what is familiar?
What if you and your family or friends are driving through town, and you see four police officers surrounding two young Black men? Maybe you recognize them, maybe you donât. Maybe one of them was in chorus with you last year. Maybe youâve seen them at the store. Or maybe you donât know them at all. It doesnât matter if you know them or not.
You may be able to see if the police are armed. You may not. (While some police carry guns and others do not, we do know that they all carry power in their role as law enforcement.) You can see the young Black men are not armed, that they look confused, and that their hands are up.
Youâve seen the news over and over again; you know history. You think of Eric Garner, Sandra Bland, Philando Castile, Michael Brown, and all the others. You know this happens every day and today can be the day you change that. Here is where you can make a plan so youâll know what you can do if this does come up in your life. NOTE: You must make sure YOU are safe and out of harmâs way. Talk to a trusted adult BEFORE taking any action.
