I just read Tahir Hamut Izgil’s memoir ‘Waiting to be Arrested at Night’. He’s a Uyghur poet who got asylum and now lives in DC, but his memoir provides essential reading on what it’s like reading the tea leaves and trying to figure out when is the right time to leave your home forever.

1818 - “Young Brown Men Being Brutish”: How Police Ten 7 Portrays Māori and Pacifica People as Violent and Criminal in Aotearoa New Zealand. | Published in Journal of Global Indigeneity
In 2021, the New Zealand reality-TV show Police Ten 7 was publicly criticized for feeding racial stereotypes by showing “young brown men being brutish”.

11579 - Freddo boy victim of racism: mother | The West Australian
The mother of nine, who cannot be named for legal reasons, yesterday described her son as a shy child who had got mixed up in the wrong crowd. She believed the decision by Northam Police to charge him over such a minor matter was "completely ridiculous", saying she had received a lot of support from residents of the local community since the case was made public.
