    #Repost @tamronhall with @make_repost ・・・ 8 #Repost @tamronhall with @make_repost ・・・ 8 bullets...#justiceforbreonnataylor. Today would have been Breonna Taylor’s 27th birthday. I woke up thinking about her warm smile in this picture. My thoughts turned to how her face must have shown fear and pain in her last moments as eight bullets entered her body after undercover police officers entered her home. While not ”captured on video,” you can imagine the horror. She was not a suspect and had done nothing wrong. Her family loved Breonna; she was a first responder, a job she loved because “she cared about people.” And now we must CARE about Breonna’s story and justice for #breonnataylor #sayhername

    #Repost @cleowade with @make_repost ・・・ Hi F #Repost @cleowade with @make_repost ・・・ Hi Family, ⠀ I have been pretty absent from IG for the past few days. Partly, because I needed some space to process everything that is happening but mostly because I have been focused on working towards the most simple, tangible, first steps I believe we ALL can take to reduce police violence RIGHT NOW. ⠀ So today, I am back online and I am here with ACTION ITEMS!! Many of you either know or have now heard of @campaignzero, one of the nation’s leading data and advocacy organizations focused on ending police violence. Together, we are launching #8cantwait : a list of 8 policies that, when combined, have the power to reduce the police violence that results in death by up to 72% in our cities. ⠀ These policies can be changed immediately ( Something I didn’t know before working on this is that mayors have the power to change police policy TODAY if we create the demand) #8cantwait are common sense and easy to understand ideas regarding use-of-force that will make our communities safer. ⠀ Our plan is simple but not small - Learn about the policies (8cantwait.org or link in my bio!), find out which of the policies your city has in place, call/write/email your mayor demanding to have all 8 —and call/email them more than once! ⠀ This is data based and I believe this is something we can all show up to do to make real change right now. I truly hope you will join me in this effort. ⠀ I also believe that this is one of the many pathways toward reforming our broken systems. Please don’t choose between this and your efforts to defund, prosecute, etc. ⠀ This is not an “either/or” it is a “both/and.” Whatever it is you are doing at this time, do this too! I love you. I love us. ⠀ There is a role in the good fight for everybody. Start today. These 8 can’t wait because change can’t wait.
