Tomorrow is the anniversary of the day you called me to tell me I was acting as an agent of the state and establish notification requirements for my own recording of my own experience.

You offered no help.

When I called back you told me every park is different.

Get through your time.

I understood exactly what you were that day.

That's why when everything that followed continued to escalate I didn't look to you for help.

I already knew.

---

How much coordination was happening before you called me?

What did [Park Supervisor] tell you?

Did she share the video with you? Did you watch it?

Did you ever wonder why a volunteer felt the need to record a meeting with his supervisor in the first place?

A year later, are you proud of that decision?

How will you answer these under deposition? In front of a jury?

Are you prepared?
