Making it plain

From the Derek Chauvin murder trial. Steve Schleicher, prosecutor, asks a question. Alisha Oyler, witness, responds:

“Now can you please explain to the jury, why did you continue to record what you were seeing here?”

“Because I just — I always see the police, they’re always messing with people. And it’s wrong and it’s not right."

You can see this exchange at C-SPAN (5:48:59).

  4. I think my curation might have begun and ended with this post. I watched several hours yesterday. I can only imagine how it must feel to be someone who lives every day with a well-founded fear of being harassed or harmed or killed by police.
