Halifax Regional Police say they were chasing a “white man in a Toyota.” She drives a Dodge Avenger and doesn't look like a white man. But they had to stop her and torment her anyway. — https://nsadvocate.org/2020/08/17/open-letter-regarding-the-recent-treatment-of-kayla-borden-who-was-racially-profiled-and-arrested-at-the-hands-of-halifax-regional-police/ #racism #nova_scotia #police #nspoli

Open letter regarding the recent treatment of Kayla Borden, who was racially profiled and arrested at the hands of Halifax Regional Police - Nova Scotia Advocate

Open letter: On behalf of the members of the Jamaican Cultural Association of Nova Scotia (JCANS), we wish to express our displeasure and outrage at the unfair arrest and treatment of KAYLA BORDEN by the Halifax Regional Police. She is a valued member of our Association. This was a blatant case of Anti-Black Racism manifested so egregiously in characteristic Racial Profiling in street checks by law enforcement agencies in the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM).
