When The Jury Considers Chauvin's Fate, I Hope They Won't Fall For The Lies The Crackpot From Post Apartheid South Africa Makes Up To Cover For Cops Who Kill Unarmed Black People.

This little boy’s pain is the same as #PhilandoCastile ’s daughter as she WATCHED him shot by an officer while sitting in the back of the car. It’s the same pain felt by the little girl watching as #GeorgeFloyd took his last breath w/ a knee on his neck.
Unpack THAT. Center THAT
