SUMMARY - Is 911 Failing Some Communities?

A Black woman hesitates before calling 911 during a medical emergency, weighing the risk that police will arrive with the ambulance, that officers might misread the situation, that calling for help could create danger it was meant to prevent - and her hesitation, measured in minutes, reflects generations of experience that the emergency system does not equally serve everyone.
