#DonnaDalton, a mother of two and sex worker, was shot to death by a Columbus police officer inside of his cruiser after she allegedly stabbed him in the hand.
Because she wasn't handcuffed, her family thinks that the officer was forcing her into sex acts until she fought back. pic.twitter.com/N0nvl5aWUY

Cross-cultural violence always affect black women first and the most.
When's the last time you seem them do this to a white woman? https://t.co/zSAGYKkcAh— Search4Swag (@search4swag) August 13, 2018

No, she did not hit him first.
He stalked her out of the store, berated her non stop, and as she walked away and put her hand up to get him away, he punched her from behind with a closed first.
He bloodied her mouth. She required stitches. https://t.co/md9vvpGt4U

DOJ held a forum in Ocala, Florida about abuse at the Lowell Correctional Institution for women. But there's no criminal investigation, leaving some frustrated that "it will not hold officers…responsible for inmates who have been beaten, raped or died." https://t.co/RXqNgQxuDg

Black woman got arrested for not pulling out her ID fast enough. Metro Transit Police officer brutally twisted her arm, dragged her to the ground. She was clearly unarmed & not resisting and another officer still tased her.
