“We have to stop these atrocities. Michael Stewart, Patrick
Dorismund, Ousmane Zongo—police killings of unarmed Black people in New
York have been going on for decades. If the cop who tortured Abner Louima had
killed him, that cop would probably be free now. The slavery-era Dred Scott
decision still applies—Black people don’t have any rights that the
cops respect. If the highest-ranking Black police officer in the city, Douglas
Ziegler, could be pulled out of his SUV a few days ago by white cops at
gunpoint, then who is safe?”
