A
I'm
noah
lawrence
holder,
I'm
an
artist
based
in
minneapolis
minnesota.
I've
lived
here
for
almost
10
years.
I
have
a
great
support
system
here.
They've
lifted
me
up
in
a
lot
of
ways.
It
feels
like
we've
kind
of
started,
to
acknowledge
some
of
the
real
problems
that
are
that
are
taking
place
with
policing.
The
fact
that
we
have
this
unarmed
emergency
service
makes
me
feel
really
hopeful.
I
think
it's
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
A
I
imagine
for
my
city,
a
world
in
which
you
know
my
community
and
the
people
in
it
can
have
access
to
the
things
that
they
need
most,
that
they're
safe,
that
they're
taking
care
of
that
we
start
to
move
towards
models
that
include
restorative
justice,
de-escalation,
mental
health
awareness
and
start
putting
more
money
into
education
sheltering
the
young
house
and
that
we're
moving
towards
brighter
future
for
people
in
minneapolis.
