Say her name: Akeelah Jackson.

She was 12-years-old and run over by a St. Louis County cop who was driving nearly 60 MPH in a 30 MPH zone with no lights or sirens on. Yesterday, he was acquitted.

Three police officers went to an *elementary* school in Tennessee & arrested four Black girls.

One girl fell to her knees. Another threw up. Police handcuffed the youngest, an 8 yo with pigtails.

Their supposed crime? Watching some boys fight — and not stopping them. (THREAD)

This is sick. Targeting Black children isn’t a justice system so let’s stop calling it that. This is a evil, inhumane, and racist system.

The trauma this causes will live in our communities for generations. Enough. https://t.co/XszwsnBHF0

Just this year, more than 30 active or retired police officers joined the Jan. 6th attack. We must eliminate violent extremism in law enforcement. pic.twitter.com/dkuUkrB70z

I keep thinking about that data showing white people support BLM less now than we did before the murder of George Floyd. So many white folks are comfortable saying Black Lives Matter, but uncomfortable with anything actually changing.

A year later, we are still fighting to end qualified immunity, strengthen police oversight, and advocating for the resources that actually keep Black and brown communities safe and provide opportunities to thrive.

Whether it’s a 13yo or a 22yo, police encounters shouldn’t end in death. The killings of Adam Toledo & Anthony Alvarez aren’t isolated, rather the tip of an iceberg revealing a system tilted against Black & Brown communities. Whatever the circumstances, the killings must end.
