  • Nichols, Floyd and Linked Fate
    Feb 6 2023

    Another senseless death captured the world's attention as the video of Tyre Nichols final moments of life were released. Elected officials and community members expressed shock and sadness after seeing the police body camera and neighborhood security camera footage​, which showed multiple Memphis Police Department (MPD) officers kicking, punching and striking Nichols with a baton as he screamed for help. Join Judge Aquilina and Shari Botwin, LCSW in an emotional conversation about Nichol's death, and how we can take action and demand change. Linked fate is when others can imagine that Floyd, Nichols and others could have been their sons, husbands, parents or teachers. These types of tragedies hit close to home. How can society trust people in authority when some of them act in horrific ways?

    "Like so many, I was outraged and deeply pained to see the horrific video of the beating that resulted in Tyre Nichols’ death," President Biden said in a statement on Friday evening. "It is yet another painful reminder of the profound fear and trauma, the pain, and the exhaustion that Black and Brown Americans experience every single day." U.S. reacts to video of Tyre Nichols' fatal beating by Memphis police (axios.com)
