This isn't about a difference of opinion on a trivial matter.
This is about basic human rights!
We are all one people that deserve to be respected and treated equally.
Why use military force when you can just serve justice? People are pleading justice for George Floyd by charging the other police officers and all to the fullest degree. Continuing to ignore these pleas shows why the system is so broken. #BlackLiveMattters #NoJusticeNoPeace

A couple days after George Floyd’s death, my grandfather texted me and told me he’s glad that I am not living in the U.S. right now because he would fear for my life as a young black man. As days have passed, this text from my grandfather has not been able to leave my mind.

No you won’t because you got upset when Kaepernick peacefully protested. Can’t have it both ways. https://t.co/a5xysbtWsp
