In our first episode back we talk with Esther, a social worker and team manager with experience in working in child protection, and children's safeguarding about Child Q, as she is called, a 15 year old girl who was made to remove her clothing, underwear and a sanitary pad, spread her buttocks and cough when her teachers accused her of smelling of cannabis. After they failed to find drugs on her, Metropolitan police officers were called into the school to conduct a strip search . Let us be clear - this was not a strip search! It was assault and we are outraged!
If you are a professional working with young black girls consider what this story is telling other young black girls about how they should feel about those in authority who should be there to protect them.
