“When I reached this policeman in the street, he hit me over the head with his club...I wanted to get protection, but instead the cops hit me...I was afraid to run, because I knew if I did they would hit me again.

And little has changed in a century.” HistoryPolicePolice BrutalityRacial Injustice Book:Police Brutality: An Anthology Source: Police Brutality: An Anthology
