352. Why Was Sonia Massey's Verdict So Frustrating?
from The UPstander's Podcast with Dr. Omekongo · host Dr. Omekongo Dibinga
The Sonya Massey verdict is so frustrating because we weren't sure if there would even be a verdict. So many times we see officers get off for killing unarmed Black people. With this case, there's a verdict, but not for first degree murder so Sean Grayson could even get probation. We deserve better in this country. As Coach Doc Rivers said, we love this country but it doesn't always love us back.
