He spoke with Kerry Washington about the protests, as well as mental health, on Instagram Live.

Before Sampson spoke about the police, he talked about how he maintains his mental health since he admitted to having trouble sleeping lately.

Sampson also talked about why mental health services are so crucially needed for Black people.

Toward the end of his talk with Washington, he spoke about defunding the police and using a portion of those funds to improve access to mental health for underserved communities.

“We’re talking about defunding the police; most of us are talking about moving those resources to mental health resources.”
