Description

In the wake of the recent and tragic deaths of two models, Maleesa Mooney and Nichole (Nikki) Coats, a disturbing pattern of apathy and lack of urgency has emerged within law enforcement, shedding light on broader issues affecting Black women and girls in the city.

Sikivu Hutchinson, founder of the Women's Leadership Project (WLP), says a disturbing trend exists, where Los Angeles law enforcement displays disinterest in solving cases involving violence against African-American women.

She also emphasized the lack of urgency among local representatives, including Mayor Karen Bass, in addressing violence against Black women and girls in Los Angeles.

The WLP is a feminist mentoring and civic engagement program for Los Angeles students.
