The city of Philadelphia will pay $2 million to a Black woman who was pulled from a car, beaten by officers and had her toddler used for social media fodder by the police union, officials said.
Nursing aide Rickia Young was headed home in the early morning hours of Oct. 27, 2020, when she unknowingly drove into a large protest over the police killing of Walter Wallace Jr.
She tried to make a three-point turn to get away from the tense scene when officers smashed out her windows with their batons, according to her attorneys.
Young was handcuffed and separated from her teenage nephew and 2-year-old son for several hours, and no one was ever charged or cited, according to the woman’s lawyer. The hearing-impaired toddler lost his hearing aids during the tussle.
The Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest police labor union, posted a Facebook picture two days later showing Young’s toddler in the arms of a Philadelphia police officer just after the incident.

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA
Just realized that both coming out day and indigenous peoples day are on the 11th this year so here's your reminder from your local queer native to not let Indigenous Peoples Day get ignored and forgotten this year. Support natives even if they're not queer this october 11th, and don't let white + colonized narratives be the main focus of the day.

philly turned out to evict trump, so if you want to say thank you for getting it done please donate to the philly bail fund.
philly has the worst cops in america, just two weeks ago they pulled a Black mother out of her car, beat her and arrested her in front of her 2-year-old son, who they then kidnapped and used for copaganda. she had committed the crime of getting stuck on a one-way street at the edge of a protest against the murder by cops of Walter Wallace, a Black man suffering from mental illness, who was shot in front of his mother.
there's no reason to expect cop behavior to improve now that trump's lost and they're angry. please support the people of philadelphia, who showed up.
for more on police violence, antiracism and radically transformative politics in philly and what you can do to help, see @phillybailfund, @phillybailout, @blmphilly, @phillywerise, @vietlead, and twitter hashtags #FreeAnt #WalterWallaceJr
philly/pa folks add more orgs & links if you have them!
Don't know why you would follow me, but thanks.
