how upset would you be if someone murdered your friend? your brother? a family member? george floyd was a friend. george floyd was a brother. george floyd was somebody’s family. george floyd was murdered by 4 white minneapolis officers. george floyd begged for his life. 1/7.
his life mattered, and officers let him die. my friend asked me why we don’t show the same outrage for white people who die at the hands of the police — white people aren’t murdered because they’re white. i am not racially oppressed, and i will never die as an act of racism. 2/7.
all lives matter, but if you use that to fight the black lives matter movement, then clearly not all lives matter to you. blm is a reminder to oppressors and the privileged that oppressed and underprivileged lives matter *too.* here’s a thread about that. #BlackLivesMatter https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> 3/7. https://twitter.com/gotellembrina/status/1265637969299492865">https://twitter.com/gotellemb...
if you‘re white: recognize your privilege, because it fucking exists. use it as it should be used — to fight for the oppressed, the underprivileged, the underrepresented. if you’re a poc: don’t stop fighting. your life is just as valuable as mine. don’t accept otherwise. 4/7.
george floyd was murdered. george floyd was murdered by white officers. george floyd died because of white privilege and racism. i’ve now said his name eight times because he deserves justice. people need to hear his name and make change. #GeorgeFloyd #GeorgeFloydWasMurdered 5/7.
anyone, especially those who face this on a daily basis, are free to add anything of importance onto what i’ve said. i cannot say nearly enough of what needs to be said, nor can i do enough of what needs to be done. 6/7.
if you have a phone number, please text FLOYD to 55156 and fill out the petition in the text.
if you don& #39;t have a phone number, you can STILL DO THE SAME SURVEY which is linked here. #BlackLivesMatter https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> 7/7. https://act.colorofchange.org/sign/justiceforfloyd_george_floyd_minneapolis/?source=dm_sms_optin_5-26-20">https://act.colorofchange.org/sign/just...
