Students from Waskowitz Environmental Leadership and Service (WELS) High School gave public comments at Monday night’s (Nov. 19) Burien City Council meeting, and we’ve edited together their comments in a video below. Students spoke – often with passion and personal stories – about local youth relationships with police, and ended with the following group “ask”:
- We advise that you include community voice, especially the voices of youth in the training of police such as student-led training
- Also, we suggest more events that push police officers to meet, connect with and bond with our community
