the, the time. anyway, wait a minute or will it make me a middle school and get arrested? a substation wait. they say i go to adult, present the process we do all around. we're not trying to like, pay it by then. it would be 2 weeks to south carolina and go back to new york to henderson. there's the 3 weeks the south carolina go back to new york, have some business, including, but not limited to policy, so immensely. i just relocated because there was a bigger conversation and i just kind of walk away from it. so may know 2016. we started before organization, every black girl. every black girl started off as a campaign to get the charges dropped and started looking at how to shift school

culture when it comes to push out. and this mental disturbance go along the once the investigation was on, they took everything and they presented it to dan johnson, who was the solicitor who was the chief prosecutor originally across all county. he looked at the case to decide if in fact there was enough to charge probable cause to charge me with the crime. and this particular situation in

all parties cleared may of any wrongdoing. mm. the . okay. from my master's degree, i was that university of south carolina. i was looking at how the land

holds trauma. there's trauma across this land and nature is taking it over. but the issues still remain because history doesn't work the same way and nature the past lives in the present. wow. you can see hundreds of acres of rice field here built on the backs of the slave labor force. these african engineers, right that had been brought from the rise coast of africa, 3000 miles across the ocean. and bring people here. i brought you here cuz you asked me to bring why here for you, why do you want to get here? as an african american, you know, your yeah, history stops at a point. you know, so much is not documented in the absence of records in may in,

in the absence of other ways to connect to your history. the land. you know, this is how you connect to that history. you can see the where in, in it's not just black people where they can see like the neglect and how it manifests in people and groups and communities and cultures. and how you go into some communities, black and brown communities you see is dilapidated like this, right? or you can see the, the, the lack of care that this investment and the where that accumulates from that. yeah. murphy island is a big place, and it holds a very ugly history. but it's being conveniently washed away. it's a will for neglect. i think it allows these ugly

histories to be ignored and to be swept under the rug. we have to recognize that slavery is white people's history to the spring valley scratched away a scan of memories from 50 years ago. the somehow people assume that we've turned the corner and a nice public schools and we've gone to a place where people young people will be taught and will be safe and secure as it is, it somehow got tired of the video on facebook. so i started reading the comments, the lights up some fast on the back, some of this, some of the shipping. i just got

a bill and rep norman and stopped us. now. lots of them look up to me. make sure i'm no longer place. not going through a lot, but i'm have to pull through christmas a lot of times i don't want to do all, but i will talk to them and i'm on an issue isn't. this is like why you need to keep moving the situation who need this offer from door to the right. how you doing what you desire to be afraid of just by everyone else. i can't seem to let everybody else tell me like olive. and that was all i need to know and that's not a reason why i've started school, you know,

and our cna program is strong. i feel, i mean has next because she enters some of the same things are they were not sure how i lived that moment. and this moment, if time had i been born in this moment in time, the moment that she met i live, i remember being so tired at school that day. mister smith said a math problem and i don't like math. i didn't understand what he says or reached over to my friend. what are you seeing? how understand what he told us to do? he said, vivian, there you go again. and i'm like, no, i just don't understand what you're saying. you always get a smart. you always talking something you're always doing is i grew up in time, a call from furnished me. right. and i was like, no, you just don't make sense to me. i don't understand. i actually know i got

a smart mouth, but i wasn't trying to be smart. i just did not understand. and that night on that day i was really tired. and he was like, i got something for you and he pulled out the title because we used to be able to get paddled. and i was like, not today. yeah, i don't know what i went through last night. i ran from a brother all night. i'm not, nobody's touching me, nobody hit me, not this. i mean i had to raise me around the whole classroom and so he got hired and he said, i'm tired. you me the different a soul to work a caught me and so who hurts you? change from relationship for school forever. what if somebody just asked the girl, what do i have? cuz i remember like no, i just got beat last night. i got to talk to some place assignment for what besides, what is somebody just? yes, just a little girl. what was going on? like i don't remember it's home up till the 3rd age of 13. i wanted to find

somebody off my black body, my black female body, and then i was punished because i wanted to dress pants because i'm like, like i don't pass, you can't get up there, easy enough. so when i bought a video, a lot of stuff came up for me and i will say no, they don't get to watch this alone. i know what it means to margaret alone. they don't have no. and then you said no, you don't treat her like this and then you get arrested. oh, come on, no, not, not, not like here. it's got to be beautiful and loved. then they get to fill their full expression of themselves and not feel like oh if i'm not this, i'm not ok. like they were born whole perfect, complete. it's up to us to keep it like not the, it's our refund. the

ok if the elephant in the world be very clear, when this went down was i like, oh there is a grown man who just assaulted a child. yes, i did for a girl who wouldn't get out of her chair. right. right. that's a child. i got this little girl. is there any other way that this could have gone down? this is like just insane. and i still can't understand how it hasn't been like your car. i apologize. it shouldn't look different. there hasn't been apology. i think she is old. what of the, the, you're critical of, of the situation in critical with me. i think that's fine. i was acting as a uniform police officer. obviously, i was terminated for the, for the incident, for the use of force because it sure felt like it was in proper. okay. but certainly it wasn't, you know, it wasn't no salt in any way, shape or form. you know, i was a political victim in this situation. mean i was cut loose pics politically. it

made sense? if i follow a policy procedure and i'll follow the law, there's nothing more i can do cuz that's my responsibility. that's the oh said i to, i just continue to a law enforcement level. i stand by what it did, the the so you say you came in from the eyes of a police officer, it didn't have to go that far. but if i'm looking at a criminal, another child yeah. can go that far because i read the report, the class wasn't really interrupted until this teacher got upset, but she wouldn't leave. why not remove the other kids and handle her because you said you've known her before, so it was some deeper stuff. so there could have been a light how, what is it that's making you not want to leave? well, it certainly industry, but close to me that feel the same way you knew about that situation when you talk about classroom management, things like that. so it's not the 1st time i've heard that. and that's fair. if i went to follow the patrol, when i called to a movie theater, to move somebody from movie theater, i would ask the movie theater to leave, or i went to a restaurant and need to remove somebody from a restaurant,

vanessa restaurant. right? and so i viewed it from a police standpoint and that's, that's where we keep going back to the system that created this to happen. you haven't been my focus for the system has been my focus. i don't believe police to be in schools. there's no reason that you should have been called in period. all right, i got you. yeah. so let me, let me say a couple things. one is i would say obviously, you know, we, we know that an s or on a school doesn't mean safety. i don't disagree with that. one of the biggest issues for me right now is the stickiness arose and schools weren't even sure in properly . but the guy who does it goes back a little bit. it's okay to just to point to it is okay. the whole kids accountable, i'm not saying kids don't get to be held accountable. all we spend is like, what does that accountability look like? we should not have a law where kids are being arrested for things that they can't get arrested outside industry for the

the the a sick awful lot. go that you got to get better you you go to the hospital. yes. what you need to do to help you say,

i mean what, what can i do lock up the people that are drug addicts because keep going cold. turkey is like going through withdrawals and a lot of these for people to withdraw giving them money will kill them. so you just gotta give him the government. i don't want to go as no one, not very good, but truly getting worse and worse every year. as we go, the a look at the system. what system are you referring to? you say the system we need to change the system. i hope you understand. so when i say systems, i'm talking about governmental education, institutionalized, racism,

all the policies, they recreate, all the laws that we create, that's what i mean about the system. okay? so, you know, you know, the systematic race isn't always kind of stuff. i think it's talking points, i think it sounds really good on its face, but it's one of those things where we're taking the oldest again off the kids and saying, hey, you're not responsible for your bad behavior. what we're going to do is we're going to blame it on the system. and one of the things that, you know, we, we looked at with the service law was brought up a lot. was additional force on that. a black is we're rest of the white is right, and it just proportional amount of black is or suspended to white kids. i mean, as you look as a whole, i mean you, you are in the school district and that's gonna be the case. okay. why is that happening in therapy? there is a tendency to think that like his or automatically at bought those one was run in the hallways. and this little friend in the hallway. yes, this one got the discipline referral and that's what i was like. well, you know, you can't do that is something going on. there's a way that where, when young people, depending on if they're white versus children of color. and that's the best that

typically proven in, in the schools where the, where it was disproportional. they also have black deputies. how do you explain that? are these bodies black deputies and he's black teachers? are they part of the system that's hurting last name? then we talk about internalized oppression. so if i see that i've been trained all my life, that this is better than this, i push the same narrative and i act in accordance to so yeah, we can go all day on the problems. i don't, i can't talk about problems too much because we already know their, their focus is how to retrace solutions. how do we create solution? and we keep talking about holding kids accountable, but we get to hold adults accountable to cause we're responsible for the next generation we really are. right. so i think that's good. and i think that going back, somebody can be a great point. the

a child experience and i literally only came here to stay for 2 days. so to look out right now and to know what we've been doing and how many girls i got. so huh. the say, no matter what this world tells us, you are, you are, you are the flowers because there's more so we are the

what you like. and there were some challenges ahead. she didn't want to sit in the classroom with her back toward the door. so i had to rearrange my classroom to make sure that she was comfortable for her, not the fear of someone coming up behind her. she expressed that, hey, i'm not getting that. and i told them either like a reading teacher. but i told her i said if you put your mind to is something that you can do, it was almost years that she had to work to accomplish this goal should have just so many challenges before she to, for someone to care the once she figured out that hey, a care what i do and it matters what i do that made all the

different the long road. if you use this is evidence that no matter what life throw issue in a mouse and that you can't get past nothing that you can create. yeah, and have you to think where a lot you've been like there is times where i can't get to the doctor use like the 2nd mom to make sure i got there. you will not be away. no matter what time of day it was to be there, you know, i can come you and tell you everything and know a lot of our thoughts made me keep going. thank you. what happened to you should not happen to anybody? but like i told you from the beginning, you got me for life, my life shift, it totally changed on a 1000 so far as that we wouldn't have known and been able to reach. we've been

able to reach rate. and so, and i, oh that's the, that's what i said. so you got me for life. my word is my boss. so the, there are many people in this country, especially in south carolina who say, yeah, slavery's done. what's the big deal? right, why do black people act like as they're still in slain use array of slavery? the 1st lady was yesterday, so i can just and nobody is owning people anymore. but we have inherited that mentality of racial oppression. this idea that within our society, certain people belonging to certain places,

black people belong in a subjugated space like they, they belong in there and under class of people. and if you're in the under class, then you do what you're told you don't challenge the system. and your face is to make white people comfortable by not talking about race by not acting out by not by changing the way we talk and changing the way we act. so the white people feel comfortable windows on said rules of who belongs, where is challenged. that's what the wrap is about. the

the recent that's absorbed floyd, brianna taylor, and barbary or off fueling massive demonstrations. nationwide the testers are demanding. justice americans have been basing systemic racism for the are now the don't to get to me like what happened? spring valley. what brought us here? around there was a 17 year old girl watching 3 figures of like body,

they know you can do yours. 17 year old black girl. no, you can do this. so the nation just had the, i keep saying it's not about being once again, this is bigger than him. he's a representation of what we see on a larger scale with white america. he still doesn't understand the difference between accountability and blame. so as long as he thinks he's going to be blind, he's never going to say, oh, i see my role in the

face a been which is one bad apple? well no, this whole barrow is contaminated as long as this starting at the top. and that's a place where it's being granite, permission is going to be another band on another day the we the man, the from the lease. and i still need to contact your your mir and your governor and tell them police officers to be removed as social services education, our teacher because our lives depend on it. but also i'm very clear and i'm

getting old. so i know i am showing up with a long time ago, the employee think we've actually given over. we don't change it now, but will never change it again. this is the moment, the test today in downtown l. a. this time by students, they're pushing to eliminate the school police to for young protesters. little march through oakland, california on tuesday to demand police free one, pennsylvania, and the education rights that work on the district to remove police from campus is minneapolis school boards. that it would no longer use city police as school resource officer. the

. so i'm headed to michigan in the middle of a pandemic because the girl who we are referring to is grace was arrested for failing to complete her online school work. ringback i prefer not to have to travel again in the hope is they won't even be an opportunity for me to go because there will be no more. she cars and grace is the the, the

with the, the what happened on october. the 2nd was a deal breaker for it was the slaves revolting against the master. when slaves revolt against the legitimate masters, that is not going to be peaceful and it is going to be violent terrorist here. and that will take a right and is there is there, there in just surrounding the entire area of the fall. do you think i'm ready for us? you know, they know we're gonna scatter like ship terrible tragedy and terrible revenge as i say. and i know who they mean to come off the, the on us know, especially the place you have in the

could this of being prevented which off one. but it seems to be that we don't want these letters to be that we want to send 2 people out of deland to leave in peace and prosperity. is it possible to have peace in this region ever again? the as many predicted, his real sounds was on god's is triggering a much larger middle east complex. it appears being added states as willing to fight israel's regional enemies for is real business like jo, biden's,

blank chip underwriting israel. actually the lot the most put in says most modern russian weapons a superior to 4 and kind of watch while the country is defense. medistat release as the lake is not the via of battlefield lawson, the usual size. it's roughing up that symmetric and painting 100 units. it now has it's 5 sites all the solve and said he'll drop off, leaving behind a trail of destruction in despair across the gas the b, b a which one area in west charles was invited by his radios at the beginning of the ground operation. we've been shocked by the extensive destruction of building streets and infrastructure at the us defense, secretary of vows, america will take all necessary test steps to defend itself. his statement comes in week after 3 us.
