We demand the hospitals and care facilities of Seattle employ black doctors and nurses specifically to help care for black patients.

This is racist.

We demand that the city create an entirely separate system staffed by mental health experts to respond to 911 calls pertaining to mental health crises, and insist that all involved in such a program be put through thorough, rigorous training in conflict de-escalation.

This is a really good idea.

Could be, but I see the mental health experts calling the police to get the subject under control. And it doesn't seem to address the issue of the day.
