It’s a big issue. The U.S. system creates what’s going on the streets. It’s the way laws are written. We have to change the system of laws in this nation. — Bishop Felipe Teixeira, Pastor, Brockton
I don’t know. If we’re going to change what police are doing, it has to come from the top down. To end police brutality, we need to have better education about racism. — Frankie, Student, Randolph
It’s not about additional training. Officers have to be held personally responsible for negligent behavior and carry malpractice insurance. — Marc Germain, Student, Egleston
There are a bunch of police officers who think it’s ok to kill black people. They get off work and they get paid for it. People are getting tired of it. — Robert Guide, Unemployed, Roxbury
I don’t know. I doing think it’s going to end. I don’t think there’s interest among enough white folk to stop it. — Soledad Boyd, Social Practice Leader, Roxbury
It’s going to take people mobilizing in the street. We are seeing a tsunami of protests across America. People are saying “no more.” — Stevan Kirschbaum, Union Vice President, Roslindale
