of the time anyway, wait a minute or will it back so oh yeah you're still interested. ready in middle school and getting arrested and stop saying, hey, i go to adult present. if we're not working from system, we do all the round work time. it has a light like that. it would be 2 weeks to south carolina and go back to new york to handle some of those the 3 weeks. the south carolina go back to new york, have some business, including, but not limited to policy advocacy immensely. i just relocated because there was a bigger conversation and i just kind of walk away from it. so may of 2016. we started before organization, every black girl. every black girl started off as a campaign to get the charges dropped. to start looking at how to shift school
7:31 pm
culture when it comes to push out and this model this term to scroll 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 in car, sol 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
7:32 pm
7:33 pm
holds trauma. there's trauma across this land and nature as taking it over. but the issues still remain because history doesn't work the same way that 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 rice coast of africa, 3000 miles across the ocean. i'll bring people here. and i brought you here cuz you asked me to bring why here for you, why did 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 any absence of records and names and in the absence of other ways to connect to your history. the
7:34 pm
land. you know, this is how you connect to that history. you can see the where it's not just black people when 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, a slice the 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
7:35 pm
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 in somehow people assume that we've turned the corner in a nice public schools. and we've gone to a place where people, young people will be taught and will be safe and secure. that somehow got tired of the video on facebook. so i started reading the comments, the boss wakes up some fast on the, on the background. some of this, some of the shipping, i just got
7:36 pm
a bill from amazon and stopped us now. lots of them look up 3, make sure i'm in a long better place. not going through a lot, but i'm have to pull through a lot of times, i don't want to do all, but i will talk to them and i'm on an issue as soon as she's like, why you need to keep me on the situation who need this offer from door to right, how you doing what you desire to be after are free of just hi everyone else. i can't continue to let everybody else tell me like all of never saw. i want to know. and that's another reason why i've started school, you know,
7:37 pm
are to seen a program is strong. esl, i mean has next because she enters some of the same thing. they were not sure how i lived that moment. and this moment as 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. so i reached over to my friend. now, what do you see at all? 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 smart to always talk is something you 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
7:38 pm
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 pedals. 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 touch me. somebody hit me, not this. i mean i had to race me around the whole classroom and so he got hired. and then he said, i'm tired. you me. there's different a soul to work. a caught me itself hurts shift, change for relationship for school forever. what if somebody just ask those girl? what dev. cuz i remember like no i just got beat last night. i got tired of some place assignment for one of the big thoughts. what have somebody just this little girl? what was going on? like i don't remember it's home up to the 3rd age of 13. i wanted to find somebody
7:39 pm
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 saw the video, a lot of stuff came up for me and i will say no, they don't get to watch because the law, i know what it means to walk. i don't know, we don't have that. 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's good to be beautiful in love. 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 kings complete. it's up to us to keep it like not our refund. the
7:40 pm
ok. if the elephant in a room 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 diag 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 file a policy and procedure and i filed a law,
7:41 pm
there's nothing more i can do because that's my responsibility. that's ceo's that i took, i just continue to a law enforcement level. i stand by what it did that 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't 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. what is it that's making you not want to leave? well, i certainly understand, but close to me. i 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 before i went to a restaurant and need to remove somebody from
7:42 pm
a restaurant when that's the restaurant to 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 in 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 to whole kids accountable. i'm not saying kids don't get to be held accountable. always tend 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 in the streets for there's no end in sight over how you're going to continue to destroy the earth. is the case of the med, most of the people i tried to go to the gym,
7:43 pm
but i'm certainly not ready to fight russia. this is also of soon. this is the 3rd world lunacy re washing as for so the funder line likes to say, we have the tools while we just start with stability and business deals. what are you living on that have very good stuff again that you know a price here in new york. i think we don't know the aftermath any time that you're not allowed to ask questions, you should ask all of the questions. some more questions ask a better the answer is, will be the
7:44 pm
to 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 we're, we're taking the noticed 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,
7:45 pm
and it just for, for somebody black is or suspended to white kids. i mean, as you look as a whole, i mean, you, you or any school district that's going to be the case. okay. why is that happening? in your opinion? there is a tendency to think that black kids are automatically at spot. this one was run in the hallways. and this little friend in the hallway, yes. the best 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 with young people, depending on if they're white versus children of color. and that's best to typically prove 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 these 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,
7:46 pm
i can't talk about problems too much because we already know their, their focus is how do we trace solutions? how do we create solution? and we can talk about holding kids accountable, but we get to hold adults accountable too because we're responsible for the next generation we really are. right. i think that's good. and i think that going back somebody can make a point of the class. the a child is barriers 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. i'm having a moment, the
7:47 pm
say no matter what this world tells us you are, you are you are the crowd because the more so we are the 1st came to us by noon 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,
7:48 pm
i'm not getting bad. that i told her 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 2 years that she had to work to accomplish this goal. she had just so many challenges before she to, for someone to care the once she figured out the hey, a care what i do when it matters. what i do that made all the different the, the long road if you use this is evidence that no matter what life throw issue in a mouse and that's you can't get past nothing that you can create. yeah. and have you to, thanks for a lot. you've been like there is times where i can get to the doctor use like the
7:49 pm
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 on. thank you. what happened? so you should not happen to anybody. but like i told you from the beginning and you've got me for life, my life shifted totally change on a 1000. so congress that we wouldn't have known and been able to reach, we've been able to reach rate. and so, and out after you this last this, 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?
7:50 pm
right, why do black people act like as they're still in slaves array of slavery? the 1st lady was yesterday, so i can just ended. nobody's owning people any more. 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 and they are in the 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
7:51 pm
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 rooms of who belongs, where is challenged. that's when the wrath is felt the america the recent deaths of george lloyd, brianna taylor, and barbary or off fueling massive demonstrations nationwide testers are demanding justice for black americans that have been basing systemic racism for the
7:52 pm
are now the don't. who gets the lead? spring valley. what brought us here around there with a 2 year old girl watching 3 figures of like body and they know you can do yours. 17 year old, blank girl. no, you can do this. so the nation just had the r keeps fan is not about be and once again this is bigger than him. he's a representation of what we see on the largest scale, but white america,
7:53 pm
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 band with says one bad apple. well no, this whole barrow is contaminated as long as this garden at the top. and that's a place where it's being granite permission. it's just going to be another band on another day, the
7:54 pm
we to man a bass from the lease. and i still need you to contact your school board, your mirror and your governor and tell them police officers to be removed as social services education, our teachers, because our lives depend on it. but also i'm very clear and i'm getting most show i know i am showing up for the fight for a long time. the 2nd point, just to think we've actually skipped 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 the on the protesters. little
