I want any young people watching this to understand that what the police are doing here is not okay. Itâs a violation of the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of the press.

In the meantime, thereâs a book I think you should all read & share with your grownups. Itâs by @tiffanymjewell, and itâs called This Book is Anti-Racist. Maybe you already have it, or if your library is open they might have it. Or you can get it here: https://bookshop.org/a/4411/9780711245211">https://bookshop.org/a/4411/97...
