Video Blog by Don Allen, M. A. Ed./MAT  What do you tell students about the death of 22-year old Amir Locke in downtown Minneapolis by  the  MPD? It's like peeling an onion - so many layers, so many people, missed opportunities, along with policies and procedures that date back to the 1970s. Many local politicians are complicit in this death, maybe this death brings about the change like they said about George Floyd, Dante Wright, Winston "Boogie" Smith, and the future dead Black Men in the Twin Cities - game over.
