SCHENECTADY NAACP of Schenectady President, the Rev. Nicolle Harris, told protesters outside of City Hall Thursday that she’s received phone calls this week suggesting that police would be unable to do their jobs if her organization and others continued with its demand that the city ban knee to neck holds.
“I’m not asking any police officer not to do their job,” Harris, pastor at Duryee Memorial A.M.E. Zion Church, told dozens of protesters.
“I’m asking that you do your job effectively. I’m asking that you do your job without harming people unnecessarily – and without knee holds.”
