Black Agenda Radio · $75,000 Judgement for Black New York City Mother Whose Child was Taken Illegally

Anne Venhuizen is an attorney in The Bronx Defenders' Impact Litigation Practice. She joins us from New York City to discuss Bronx Defenders’ litigation on behalf of Chanetto Rivers, whose newborn baby was taken from her illegally by the Administration for Children’s Services. Bronx Defenders secured a $75,000 judgement from the City of New York on her behalf. We discuss this case and racism in what purports to be child protection.
