Attorney Hakeem Muhammad on the News Muhammad Law Center Sues Police For An Aggressive Assault on a Black Family
Hakeem Muhammad, the attorney for Reed and the Hobbses, said in an email that this incident shows how U.S. police operate with the mindset that Black skin is probable cause.
“This lawsuit exposes the raw truth of what happened when an all-white police force, acting on a so-called ‘tip’ about one individual, used it as an excuse to terrorize an entire Black family,” Muhammad said. “They didn’t see citizens — they saw Black skin, and in their minds, that was enough to justify assaulting our elders, our children, our family members.”


Our History
Muhammad Law Center launched from a modest building in Chicago’s South Side, in the heart of the Black community. From its inception, the Center has been dedicated to protecting the human rights of African Americans, focusing on critical areas such as police brutality, prisoners’ rights, and criminal defense.
This strategic location and bold approach position the Muhammad Law Center as more than just a law firm – it’s a vital community resource, an innovative think tank, and a powerful advocate for change. As a think tank, the Center conducts research, develops policy recommendations, and creates strategies to address systemic issues in the justice system.
