| LK115,How did your parents help you adapt in school?,"LK115_My mother would get really upset when kids were unkind at school.

So it was like, I learned his technique and like his body language, and it taught me how to be, now, especially now that I'm an adult, it taught me to be where I'm at now, to learn how to process life differently.

| LK119,How did your Blackness shape your childhood? ~ What was it like growing up black?,"LK119_My blackness as a child shaped my childhood very strong early, early on, very strong, because my dad would buy little things for me to be comfortable in my own skin. Like I'll never forget, he bought me a shirt that says, ""When God Made You, He was Showing Off"". And I didn't understand that. And I asked him one day, what do you mean? And he just allowed me to really look at myself. It has nothing to do with looks. You're a strong minded person. So if I tell you one thing, you still going to do what you want to do? Whether it's good or bad, you still do it. You should keep that. But listen to what I'm saying, because I'm guiding you in the right way. And I didn't understand that. But as I got older, I realized you do have to be your own person. And it's hard being black in the world because it conditioned you to not be okay with yourself. And I always thought to myself, if he's okay with himself, who am I not to be okay with myself? The world is sometimes against him and he's still confident. He's not cocky, he was very humble. So for me it was natural to be okay. And then I studied our ancestors, right? I studied our ancestors, and I look, I compare myself to now to them. They had way less than us, and a lot of them had way more confidence than us. We're literally their wildest dreams, you know. So who are we not to show up? Who are we not to show up in our blackness? We were born this way. God could have made us anything else. But you have to consider, you're supposed to be here.","['How did your Blackness shape your childhood?', 'What was it like growing up black?']" |

And then, you know, I think the news, like, came on, and it was breaking news. And I saw them beating a guy. And I thought to myself, because I've never seen anything like this, I was trying to like, gather my thoughts. I thought it was, like, I couldn't understand because I was watching cartoons, so I didn't understand how this had got on the TV. And long story short, when I seen breaking news, I realized that it was on the news. And I for sure thought to myself that whoever this person is, they were dead. Then when they, I believe, someone said a name. I can't remember the exact detail right now, but someone said the name, and, and I realized my reaction when I looked around at my family. Then I realized that that was my dad. And then that's when my whole world just, like, kind of froze. So I went to the bathroom, and I was, like, trying to gather my thoughts.

And people were always at our door, like coming to ask questions, things of that nature. So we moved with my great-grandmother, and everybody pretty much lived with my great-grandmother at one period of time. So, we moved there hoping no one would like, know where we were, or knock on the door, or call. I think she felt safer there just because no one knew we were there, and it was like a fresh start, and we can take a deep breath, and, you know, given we didn't go to private school, so it was a little hard, I think she was thinking about us and, you know, not having to worry people asking those questions and things of that nature.","['Why did your family move to South Central?', 'Why did your family leave Montclair?', 'Why did your family relocate a lot?

I would say things were definitely different, and they still are currently. It's hard to process. You know, it's, it teaches you to develop a thick skin. It's not always healthy, though, because you're normal, you know. And so, it's hard adjusting to it, because people naturally look at you, you know, if they're not in the family, so they actually look at you, and, like, stare while it's playing, and you have to, like, adjust to the mood. I'd say it was very uncomfortable. Still is uncomfortable to this day to to watch the video and be present.","[""Describe the mood in your home as video of your dad's beating went viral."", 'What was it like in your home as the video aired?']" |
| LK141,Does the media treat you differently today? ~ What do you think about the media today?,"LK141_I feel like media in the world today, and back then, period can do a lot better. I feel like I feel strongly about the the interview I did earlier, I believe it was earlier this year with USC. It made me get it. It made me feel like I can breathe again. Because, you know, we spoke on things that are current. We spoke on things that are realistic. And we spoke on the problem instead of pointing the finger. You know, it just, it just, it made me feel a lot better. It made me feel like what I do is good. It makes me feel like I'm going to have the domino effect on the world in a better light.","['Does the media treat you differently today?', 'What do you think about the media today?']" |
| LK142,How does the media play a role in portraying police brutality? ~ What responsibility does the media have in police brutality?,"LK142_I was a child when the incident happened with my father, but I feel like media and reporters played, played and still currently play a big part in the society in the way that we look at African-Americans, and the way we look at anything, just any interaction, period. I feel, like, selective, there's certain words that the media use that will allow you to think differently, either positive or negative. I feel like the media has a big influence on society in the way we look at criminals, and the way we look at Americans and humans, and the way we look at African-American people, period. I feel like oftentimes they are conditioned to use code words to make people desensitize what's been done to black people, which I think that bothers me a lot. But then, you meet different people that give you hope and they, you know, their perspective of what's going on is real, and it's relatable. But it's awful not putting black people down. It's not capitalized, capitalizing on if someone's a criminal or not is not justifying beating. You know, right is right, and wrong is wrong. And they humanize people. They're not, like condemning them for something that's not relatable to why they were pulled over.","['How does the media play a role in portraying police brutality?', 'What responsibility does the media have in police brutality?']" |
| LK144,Describe how the police assault changed your mother.,"LK144_I feel like my father's beating in 1992 directly affected my mother in so many ways. She wouldn't be able to sleep at night. She was constantly worried after that about my father. I feel like, mentally, it was a lot for her to process. At the time, they were still legally married, and so I think it just really took a toll on her emotionally for her to, like, concentrate because it was, like, she was always, always worried about him. Lik,e if, you know, because people were following him, people were following us and calling and showing up. So she always worried, it's way worse for him.",['Describe how the police assault changed your mother.'] |
| LK147,How did your parents explain the riots? ~ What did your parents tell you about the LA riots?,"LK147_My mother explained to me what happened with the riots were that people were upset that my father's officers, basically, got home, got to go home with their family, and there was no justice done for them doing what they did. And she asked me, ""How do you feel about the videotape?"" I told her, and she said, ""How would you feel if,"" for, you know, she gave me some examples of if something like that happened, how would I feel? And I told her. And so she explained, you know, it's not justifying what they did to the city, but this is why they did it, because they're frustrated. They feel like people don't listen to them. They feel like this situation, as brutal as it was, nothing happened to them. They get to go back to their family. Which chances are, they're probably going to do this again to someone else. So that's why people are really frustrated. And this is normal behavior. This was normal behavior. This is, this was nothing new. Therefore, it happened all the time. It just so happened your father's incident was recorded, which never happened. So it's even worse because here it is, something like this, that's his, you know, this is literally history, and they're still not getting in trouble for it. It's, like, slap in the face. So it's very heartbreaking. You know, it's very heartbreaking to witness something like that, and nothing is done. And they get to go home, eat steak with their kids, and just have a normal night, and back on the force tomorrow to do it again to somebody else's father.","['How did your parents explain the riots?', 'What did your parents tell you about the LA riots?']" |

And, you know, every year Father's Day falls on a different day. That was ironic that he, the you know, that he passed away on Father's Day. I think that, that once upon a time that would make me sad that my father passed away on Father's Day. But I look back at that moment, and it definitely gives me a sign of relief. This year, this is the first year I have not cry on my birthday, literally. It's hard to celebrate your birthday when one of your parents is no longer here. So, that day is very special.

We actually did an interview with Good Morning America, and we actually had a walkthrough of the Smithsonian African-American Museum in Washington, D.C. together.

| LK155,"What would you tell daughters of police brutality victims, like Gianna? ~ What message do you have for children of police violence victims?","LK155_I think I would tell children who are daughters of victims of police brutality the same thing Gianna said when her dad was murdered. You know, ""your dad changed the world."" And he did. And I think it's great that she knew her dad before this incident. I think it's great that she developed a relationship because we live in a world that teaches you to be conditioned and what the media speaks of him. And she is not, you know, she doesn't agree with that. I think that's highly important. But I think it's important that you find out things about your father. Let's say, you know, God forbid my father didn't die that night, but a big part of him died, and we will never get it back. But I feel, like, find out who your father was, and, you know, his childhood, you know, all the way through. So that way you get the character of who he really is, because he's not going to be the same. You know, he'll never be the same again. So, I think it's great to do, you know, do your part and learn who he was before the incident because they're not going to be the same. He's definitely not going to be the same. So, if you don't, it's very confusing because you're, like, battling, like, wait, he was this way. Wait, and do your research on your, his medical breakdown. So, find out what exactly happened to him, what's permanent and what will change, you know, what will eventually go back. Otherwise, you're going to be very confused that, wait, what's going on? How is he not? You know, some things will never be the same emotionally, physically, even financially. You know, people are not the same. So definitely do your research on your loved ones before an incident happened and don't, try to make life a little easier for them because they're not going to share with you all their thoughts and emotions, and they're struggling, even if they admit it or not. So take a little easy on them. That makes sense.","['What would you tell daughters of police brutality victims, like Gianna?', 'What message do you have for children of police violence victims?']" |

I'm hopeful for my interracial friends, interracial couples, neighbors, things like that, that are, that are affected by this, that are upset about this. It gives me hope to know that in some way, they're going to make a difference to them. It seems like they take it serious when other people are affected more, or other people speak up. Because it's, like, if just black people, it's like, okay, yeah, oh, we'll give them a little this, will give them a little change. And it's like our lives is more, more important than money. But I feel like the fact that more people are affected by what's going on in the world and in America by racial injustice, I feel like people take it more serious, which is sad. But I do.

But now that I'm older, and, you know, after talking to him once or twice, because I, I've only talked to my dad, like, three times ever in my life about that night. But I do understand that he was literally running for his life. The same reason a lot of people ran for their life is not that they're, some people are not even guilty, some people not even a record, but there's literally scared for their life because they know what's going to happen, because it's happened. My father, Rodney King, is not the first Rodney King, George Floyd is not the first person. This is normal behavior. But they're scared, you know, so naturally, sometimes they run again. I'm not justifying, and I don't think it's right, but I understand it. And I think they let me know that, like, it, you know, and it's true. My father changed after that night.

| LK131,How was your father different after his assault?,"LK131_After March 3rd, 1991, my father was totally different. One of the diagnosis is he had permanent brain damage. And anybody who's familiar with permanent brain damage understands it affects everything. Your thinking, your behavior, your movement. He was like 75%, and I'm probably lowering the number, but he was about 75% in total pain all the time. And he wasn't a person that projected his pain to everybody because he wanted everybody to have fun and just. So I can tell, like off of his demeanor and his like eyes, he was in pain, when he was in pain. All the time. And he would forget things, like, a lot, like, literally very important things. And I could see that it was a struggle for him because it was embarrassing for him, because he would really try to remember, and some things he just couldn't remember. Literally can be to second things as well as year-long things. So I think that that bothered him. I feel like his patience was more, but then again it was less, if that makes sense. So I think that he was frustrated a lot because a lot of the things that he was normally great at or can do, he wasn't anymore, and it dramatically changed who he was. And physically, you know, by him being in pain, he couldn't do a lot of things that he wanted to. Or he was cold or hot, you know. It was just, it was just a lot for him to process. I think finding his own normal was impossible because life was so much different for him physically, emotionally, and mentally. I think it took a toll on him. I don't think that he was given the proper mental health from that day forward. So I think that takes a lot on you. You know, and being a man, you're not going to admit, like, I'm in pain. Well, he wasn't the type of guy that will admit. He would just, kind of, you could see he's in pain, but he won't admit it. So I think that it took like a big, big pain on him. And then, after the beating, after he was awarded the $3.8 million, of course, half of it went to attorneys but, and other things, I think a lot of people looked for him for financial help, whatever the situation. And my dad was not a guy that said no. So I think after that day, he pretty much put other people before himself. And I think that that took a heavy toll on him.","['How was your father different after his assault?', 'was your dad different after he was beaten by the police?', 'Did your father act differently after March 3?', 'What was different about your dad after what happened?', 'Did you notice a difference in your dad after he was beaten?', 'what changes did you observe in your dad after his assault?', 'How did the assault affect your father', 'what difference did you see in your father after his assault?', 'How was your father different after his assault?', 'How did the events of March 3rd, 1991, affect your father both physically and mentally?', ""Can you describe the changes you noticed in your father's behavior post the incident?"", ""How did the permanent brain damage manifest in your father's day-to-day life?"", ""How did the constant pain impact your father's daily activities and interactions?""]" |

So my family and myself went and saw him there, and I didn't initially go up to him because I was terrified because of what he looked like. He did not look himself. His, his face was like swollen on one side. It was huge. His eye was like completely disoriented. His teeth were, everything, everything was, like, horrible. He had marks all over his body, the parts that were exposed, it was, like, horrible. And I didn't recognize him. The only reason I knew it was him is because his voice and then his, you know, like I said, his teeth were messed up, but the teeth that I did see, I realized that that was my father. So he was initiating me to come give him a hug. But I didn't. I was like terrified. Then when I heard him talk, that's how I knew it was him. I was like, okay, I feel safe to go give him a hug.

I was eight years old. I didn't watch adult movies, so I didn't know how acting and mask look. So for me, I didn't, I couldn't adapt to him because he looked completely. It was terrifying for a kid to see that. It was, it was unbelievable. I can't describe it in words. So the only reason that I knew it was him is because of his voice.

They didn't care about anything at certain point. They just went in the stores and was, like, taking stuff, going home. So he was very affected by that.
