Impact. In 2014 while I was a reporter for The New York Times, I traveled to Georgia for a story about the abusive levels of discipline that Black girls were experiencing in school. The piece revolved around the story of 12 year old Mikia Hutchings
She had been involved in a juvenile criminal case for scribbling graffiti in a bathroom stall. This morning, ten years later, Mikia's attorney reached out to tell me she will share her testimony with the United Nations today.
