Christopher Kaba- Say His Name

Christopher Kaba was only 24 when his life was taken from him by an armed officer of the Metropolitan Police Service in September 2022.  In this mini episode we honour the man, discuss the response from the police and the media, and relate it to racial bias in policing in Cornwall.  Please support Chris Kaba's family: https://www.justiceforchriskaba.org/ Join Black Voices Cornwall in a stand of solidarity in Truro on 24th September 2022 https://facebook.com/events/s/stand-in-solidarity-with-justi/3141610646150251/
