In just 2 years (2019-2021), at least 178 people who called 911 were killed by the responding cops, according to WaPo. The killing of Sonya Massey, a 36 yr old Black woman, is the latest horror demonstrating why police are the antithesis to safety. Policing must be dismantled.

She called 911 for help. Police arrived. She let them in. And they killed her.

I refuse to normalize the killing of Black youth. Ryan Gainer deserved to live a full life. No amount of trainings can undo the anti-black racist foundations of our police force. Nor are they equipped to address the needs of our community members living with disabilities.

One of the most important lessons I learned from reading Toni Morrison is that there is no level of bending or acquiesing to whiteness that will ever overcome white supremacy and anti-Blackness. Our performance of “goodness” won’t ever earn inclusion or respect.
