Top Model Ajak Deng reveals she was almost killed by white police officers

Deng recently took to Instagram in a series of videos to share the details of a terrifying encounter with NYPD officers and to express her anger over the death of Alton Sterling.

“I had to go through this alone. I have to be the strongest black woman I can be by myself,” she says. Watch her story below.
