I lived in Leopold Street when https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="πŸ‡¬πŸ‡Ύ" title="Flag of Guyana" aria-label="Emoji: Flag of Guyana"> police came for 17-y-o Kelsey Benjamin. 30 officers with high powered rifles. Four police vehicles. One ambulance. They came to shoot-to-kill just because an officer lied on him. Kelsey is alive today because he was hidden. The truth then emerged
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="πŸ‡¬πŸ‡Ύ" title="Flag of Guyana" aria-label="Emoji: Flag of Guyana">Guyana cannot achieve the transformational energy of #blacklivesmatter https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> if we continue to politicise police brutality and act like the solution is one political party or the next. My thread on police brutality is a story on the dynamic of police violence that transcends politics
