The killing of Tyre Nichols by five Memphis police officers, and the video release today, is sure to prompt trauma, interest and concern among many of our students.
I know it will at our school, which is just one mile from where Stephon Clark was killed by police in 2018.
I’ve published many resources over the years to assist teachers and students in the wakes of specific police killings, and thought I would highlight a few specific ones.
