He was just walking home.
Slowly. Carefully.
A blind man. Cane in hand. No threat to anyone. 🧑🏿🦯
But to one officer?
That cane — the only thing helping him move — looked “suspicious.”
He was stopped.
Yelled at.
Told to “drop the weapon.”
“I’m blind,” he said.
But they didn’t listen.
People around started filming.
The truth was clear.
This wasn’t about safety — it was about bias.
What happened next has sparked outrage across the country.
Because being blind, being Black, and being peaceful STILL wasn’t enough to keep him safe.
