Schalk's Third Tactic and Jacob Blake's Story

Enacting Schalk's third tactic would mean providing material and social support for Blake, his children, and other witnesses disabled by violence. This could include fundraisers, provision of free medical and mental health care, and pro bono legal support for Blake in his federal civil rights lawsuit against Officer Sheskey. Social support could look like engaging in public vocal support for Blake, his family, the lawsuit, calling for the removal of Office Sheskey, and connecting Blake and his family with other survivors of police violence, or other Black disabled men. Social support is vitally important for newly disabled folks.
