This week, The Daily is revisiting some of our favorite episodes of the year and checking in on what has happened in the time since they first ran.
Scott Watson — a Black police officer in his hometown, Flint, Mich. — has worked to become a pillar of the community. And he always believed his identity put him in a unique position to discharge his duties.
After watching the video of the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody in May, his job became a source of self-consciousness instead of pride.
Today, we call up Scott once again and ask how he’s been doing and how things have been in his police department.
Guest: Scott Watson, a police officer in Flint, Mich.
