YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDo you remember the Black teen from New Jersey who police officers handcuffed after a fight with a white teen at a mall?
The mall says Z'Kye Husain's family is responsible for paying for the broken table. Mind you, that table did not get damaged until the officers arrived and slammed Z'Kye down.
Z'Kye's attorney, Ben Crump, posted this on Twitter about the incident.
"It has just been discovered that the mother of Z'Kye, the Black teenager involved, was told by the head of mall security when she went to pick him up that she would be responsible for the cost of a broken table that law enforcement knocked over as they used explicit bias and excessive force, slamming her 13-year-old son to the ground, face first, and putting a knee in his back. This offensive and unacceptable demand of payment continues to exemplify the disparate treatment of white families and Black families in America. The only people who should be asked to pay for the damaged table are those who engaged in biased policing and caused it to be damaged -- the Bridgewater Police Department."
Z'Kye and his family believe the police mistreated him because of his race.
