Just over a year ago we held our event 'Kids of Colour on Policing' w/ @npolicemonitor. Incredible young people spoke out, and their words have informed so much of our work.

Many joined us then, we hope even more join us now.

First was Nia, on the trauma that policing causes:
Then Ade, on the everyday policing of young black boys:
Followed by Grace, who discussed her experience of being policed at school:
And finally Mapy, who spoke of his frustration that the public just do nothing when they see a stop.

Follow us.
Follow @npolicemonitor.

Together we've been working hard to mobilise around over-policing in GM, and we need everyone on board.
