あらすじ・解説
This episode is a rallying cry for empathy and understanding, especially for those who are non-verbal or struggle to communicate.
Stop calling the police on Brown and Black peopleDid you catch the story of Victor Perez? If you didn't, I urge you to do so.
In this bonus episode of "Different, not broken" I want to explore the layers of miscommunication that led to his death and how society's perception of 'threat' is often skewed by race and misunderstanding.
We have an urgent need for crisis intervention resources that do not involve police, but instead spotlight community-based alternatives.
The tragic reality is that in just 12 seconds, a life was lost due to a system that is ill-equipped to handle individuals in crisis.
This bonus episode intends to share resources and insights that aim to educate and empower you, as a listener, to advocate for change and compassion in your community.
