Young, brown, and looking 'unsafe'

When Richmond resident David Meza was pulled over riding his bike in nearby Pinole, the officer asked why Meza was in Pinole and explained, “I’m not saying you’re doing anything wrong, you just look unsafe.” Upset by the experience, Meza posted the story on social media, and got supportive comments. But he wanted to go further and talk to the officer face to face the next day. "I told him how I felt about what happened, and what I saw as an abuse of power... He also apologized, said he’d work on being better, and that he’d try not to do it again. That felt good. But part of me still feels as if nothing will change in people like that." Read the whole story on Richmond Pulse.
