In this discussion we want to focus on police militarization, and in particular the aggressive, sometimes brutal, response to peaceful protests for change. We will dive into how the phenomenon of police militarization ignores Black and indigenous pain, how it is inherently anti-black, and a mere tool of the state to perpetuate poverty, racism, homophobia, patriarchy and etc. but to silence the issues at bay. The militarization of police is not only something we see here in the United States but is evident all over Latin America.
