Is anyone seriously explaining to young Black people, males in particular, that if they break the law and get a criminal record it could well seriously hamper their efforts to find a good job, and hamper their overseas travel plans into the future?
Bruh, I almost got arrested at 16 for running. I’m just kind of loping along when a sector car pulled into the curb cut in front of me, so close I literally ran into the side of the car.
Cop had me face down on the hood of the car and was cuffing me. I didn’t say anything.
“Why are you running?”
“It’s 945 and my Dad said be home by 10!”
He let me go.
I was so pissed.
