What this doc proves is we need a new way forward. Perhaps it’s using the cops as back up to counselors or AA degreed social worker students….. I don’t know. But I do know this. Over 2/3rds of our issues could be solved by instituting a real and comprehensive social welfare system. Universal healthcare, subsidized child care, 90% unemployment for up to 2 years, tuition free public colleges and trade schools. Paid maternity leave, a real living wage and of course PTO without the guilt factor.
People should not be afraid of their government. The government should be afraid of the people.
We’re not afraid of the government and the government in fact is afraid of us.
I am a Food and Beverage department head at a Marriott hotel, I am also African American. I didn’t hear about this documentary until Thursday 07/04/2024, and it was from a European American, from Tennessee, they brought this up and asked me what I thought, I said I hadn’t heard about it. They gave me the details, somehow I wasn’t shocked and the wife asked why, confused? I told her, because I know the history of this country and I gave her the exact year, when the concept of policing started in 1664, bo with a police force but with the first mention of color as a sentient entity. The first laws governing skin pigment, rights inferred on it, and rights denied because of it. This couple was shocked, especially the wife.
