And this officer, Jeff Israel from the Oakland Police Department, he said he feels like it's really important for police officers to hear and understand the rage that is in the community because of what happened.
Kazu HagaGUEST
And that is an incredibly rare thing for a police officer to understand the need for him to actually like be able to absorb some of that rage but I think you know when held in the right context that rage is an important thing to communicate to the people that is causing harm to be like hey can you see my anger can you see the pain can you see the impact that your actions are having on me and so I think when held in the right context rage and anger can be incredibly powerful for fuels for social change.
