I’m so tired of the framing of “unarmed” Black people. There is never justification for police to kill with impunity. We deserve to live. All of us.

The police need to stop killing *all* of us. Full stop. https://t.co/vy4SzpHC4B

7 bullets in the back and no charges. 7 bullets. In the back. And no charges.

Not charging the officer who shot Jacob Blake is a green light for police across the country to continue devaluing, dehumanizing, and destroying Black lives.

We need justice.
