Dad, before you go to work, explain what I’m seeing on TV. It seems like cops are only shooting people who look like me. With the growing number of police shootings, communication with our children is very important to ensure their safety. Are Cops Only Shooting People Like Me? presents a poignant conversation between a concerned son and his father about why encounters between citizens and law enforcement can get out of hand, and how children can best be aware and prepared to handle these situations. Through his thoughtful words, Stan Campbell continues his mission to advocate for the justness and security of today’s youth. No matter your race, this is a conversation that everyone should have with their children as well as the youth in the community, so we can all join together and stand for a unified action of de-escalation.
