“I felt the darkness of the oppression and the racism that was still lingering on campus.” ~Crystal
Considering the most recent events, we thought we would take this opportunity to give space to a person of color to share their story.
Recorded back in February of 2020, Crystal Davis shares her story about being falsely accused of major crimes that she did not do. She shares how this affected her family, her name, and her entire life. She explains how she was treated upon arrest, how she was set up by white privileged men, and how long she had to fight to get this off her record. Although treated absolutely unfairly and after many years of healing, she still remains a person that can trust and love again. Being victimized in the world can often leave you cynical, but not Crystal. Her ability to still live with compassion is remarkable.
This is just one person’s story. A person of color. ONE story. Please consider taking action and donating to one of the non-profits listed below, or to Crystal herself.
Thank you for listening!
