I’m so sorry for what happened to your son. I cried several times just imagining being in your shoes. But my goodness you told a beautiful story of your son and kudos to you for all of your investigative work! Don’t stop until you get the answers you deserve 💕.
This is not a race issue. Chicago PD is one of the most diverse PDs in the country. White officers only make up 47% of the police force. This is an issue where the police dept sees so much death and gang violence that they have become completely desensitized to it and to change that, you need to change the community. Kids need to grow up with 2 parents so they aren’t looking at these gang members as role models.
Someone is for everyone!
I just want to start by saying how incredibly sorry I am for Courtney losing his life so senselessly 😥 Ms Shapearl your ability to articulate your pain, share Courtney’s story all while creating a podcast, holding down your household, working, building relationships in your community & beyond is absolutely outstanding. As a white woman I am always amazed by the strength of black mothers. The things yall have to endure in your lives is so incredible unfair. But you didn’t complain about it. You ... more
Omg, I don’t know where to begin. I can definitely relate to the racism from our police, to my boys and myself. I had a rollercoaster of emotions through this podcast. Very impactful, and very well presented. Momma, you made me feel your pain, I cried along side you! RIP COURTNEY
