Show notes

I wanted to commemorate Elijah McClain on his one year anniversary after his encounter with police.He was a young man, minding his own business, who walked into a local convenience store for a drink, and walked out, was tackled down to the ground by several police officers because he appeared suspicious. Police held him in a carotid position, otherwise known as a chokehold. Not only was he held down but attending medics who were called to the scene injected with ketamine to calm him. This was a recent story that resonated in the hearts of so many.
