Traumatic Videos, History, & Police Brutality

It’s easy to think sharing videos of Black people as victims of police brutality is helpful. It’s not. These videos are traumatizing. Ask yourself why you think a video is necessary instead of simply believing Black people when we say this brutality happens because of racism and white supremacy? History shows us that the fight against racism, lynchings, and police brutality continued without access to this “proof.” Also let me add that the system isn’t broken; it is functioning the way it was and is intended to.
