This has been my first day being able to watch this full video & the feeling I feel. The hurt, the anger, the devastation. Because I wouldn’t leave my baby alone in a running vehicle by himself, I ended up the one alone. In jail, on the holidays. I missed Christmas Eve, I missed Christmas.. I missed my baby. 5 days without my baby when all I wanted to do was protect him. This has been so hard for me to fathom. I am traumatized & beyond hurt we had to go through this. My 3 year old son had to witness me, his 6 month pregnant mother being thrown onto concrete by grown men. Had to witness these same grown men attempting to break my car window. These men that were assigned the job to protect and serve. Did you protect my unborn child when I told you I was pregnant & you screamed “I DONT GIVE A F**K” as you pushed my body to the ground? My face, my stomach. Telling me to get up afterwards as if I could possibly lift myself along with a 6 month fetus in my womb off the ground with my hands cuffed behind my back? (& this is following a incident when one of their officers told me they would “rip me out in front of my child” (B. Dorris). As a mother, my #1 priority is keeping my babies safe. In this moment I felt so helpless. So desperate. What do we do when the ones who enforce the rules, break them? I drove away to protect me and my babies. Why did yall do what yall did? They dont see it like that. But where im from, it’s like that. When frightened you run, hide or fight back. I ran. I drove my baby to safety knowing my dad would be arriving to get him. My baby has never witnessed aggression. He’s never been exposed to the dangers of the world. We love, we respect, we understand, we show affection. I could have handled this alone, but knowing this may be a memory he will always have devastates me. I wasn’t ready to teach him about the hate they feel towards us, not yet. I wanted him to keep that light, that innocence. Just a little bit longer. I haven’t figured out the lesson from this obstacle just yet. The reason for this experience. But I trust God and im grateful to be home. ‼️Mount Morris Township MICHIGAN.‼️
