There are many examples of police traumatizing communities of color throughout the book.

Why do you think McMillian’s supporters had to go through a metal detector and past a German Shepherd at his trial?

What historical traumas are perpetuated by the criminal justice system today?

When police enter a community wearing military gear, what kind of response does it evoke?
