Today, we are joined by Dr. Camilla Westenberg. In the first part of our show, we share the story behind a viral video showing the traumatic interaction of police officers and an older Black woman after a no-knock warrant was mistakenly served at her apartment. We talk about the trauma she endured and the disrespect and abuse she was made to feel by the officers. We also discuss how events like these erode trust in police and the ripples created throughout the community.
