Growing up South Africa post the end of Apartheid and having read of the civil rights movement I only heard tales of the police brutality most from my father and grandparents in South Africa who were directly affected I have found myself disenchanted by the idea that those who made an oath to protect could be the ones displaying such cruelty and savagery. I am no longer disenchanted and have come to realize the jarring truth that the protection and privilege of being kept safe may not be viewed to be for us all. The true story within all of this will be how we deal with the issues behind the symptom of the problem. If we continue to teach and talk about our predecessors and current victims we could inspire change.
