Black Locksmith Harassed and Racially Profiled in White Neighbourhood Ti...
In a pair of TikTok clips, a Black locksmith highlighted the dangers of taking a job in a white neighborhood, quickly attracting the attention of local police as they were working on a lock.
The first video shows him explaining to a group of police officers that he and his co-worker have a work order to change the locks on a house. The police seem doubtful, with one officer circling them while holding an assault rifle, telling the TikToker to stop filming their conversation.
One of the other officers also has his weapon drawn, holding it as if he’s responding to a threat. The house seems unoccupied, with a realtor’s sign posted outside. The locksmiths are standing with their tools on the doorstep.
