Brandon Jackson Teaches St. Louis Youth How To Stay Safe & Confident During Police Encounters

Brandon Jackson led an unforgettable session at the Know Your Rights Camp in St. Louis, where he poured into students the critical knowledge of how to navigate encounters with authority. He explained federal and local laws not as dry statutes but as urgent lessons for survival, framing them through scenarios like investigatory stops, traffic stops, and warrant searches. Each example carried weight, showing how everyday moments could escalate without preparation. The young participants leaned in, questioned, and absorbed every detail. Jackson’s goal was clear: to arm Black and Brown youth with confidence, safety, and empowerment.
