Minnesota Black Law Students Association: Amir Locke’s killing must lead to real change in police practices and discipline.

In an open letter, the students write, “The Black Law Students Association demands action. We refuse to support a system that disproportionately targets black bodies and executes them without reservation. Fire the men and women who decided a 7 a.m. no-knock warrant was appropriate. Release the details of the warrant in full. We built this country; we deserve better than living in fear.”
