George Floyd is the latest fatal victim of racism in America. Another gasping reminder of America's original sin. He joins Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Freddie Gray, Trayvon Martin— countless others in some 400 years of brutal legacy. #BlackLivesMatters
It is my hope that George Floyd is the last. But unless those of us with agency and privilege stand up and take the heavy mantle from our brothers and sisters of color and lead the way to change there will be more. #GeorgeFloyd
We must do the real work to make amends and break down racism and inequality-from institutional to microaggression. Let there be justice for George Floyd. Let the discomfort of his brutal death drive us to truly make America a more perfect union for all. #BlackLivesMatters
