    Life After the Impact: Justice for Herbert Hightower Featuring His Sister Castill Hightower
    Jan 14 2026

    On this episode of Life After the Impact, we sit down with Castill Hightower, sister of Herbert Hightower Jr., whose life was tragically cut short during a mental health crisis involving Seattle police. Herbert’s story, long mischaracterized as “suicide by cop,” reflects a broader and troubling history of law enforcement responses to people in crisis.

    Castill was just a teenager when her brother was killed. Since then, she has transformed grief into purpose advocating for truth, accountability, and systemic change while uplifting families impacted by police violence. In this powerful conversation, Castill speaks to the lasting impact of loss, the fight to reclaim her brother’s humanity, and what healing and justice look like beyond the moment of tragedy.

    Join us January 13, 2026 at 9 PM EST for an honest and moving discussion about remembrance, resilience, and life after the impact.
