In the wake of the police killings of citizens, Delrawn Smalls, Alton Sterling, & Philandro Castile we decided to focus on self care for today’s TK in The AM. But not before we were confronted with news reports of shootings at police during a rally in Dallas, TX.
We speak to Satori Ananda, a citizen who was at the rally and discuss the otherwise peaceful protest.
Later we shift gears to self care and the effects of PTSD on People of Color as we ingest all of this violence with guests, Jackie Dawson (Licensed Therapist) and Lauren Benson Kelly (Yogi/ Self Care expert).
Finally we speak to Sum Patten, artist and organizer of the Digital Action Committee. He invites us to divest from conventional social media and share ideas to combat police violence against people (of color).
