2/ As with any crisis it’s never just about one thing. This isn’t just about George Floyd. It’s also about thousands of others who preceded him, who got no justice and received no mercy. America needs to fall to its knees now, to apologize, to pay reparations, to commit to change

3/ And no Mr. President those who protest are not thugs. To protest is their Constitutional right. They’re doing all that has been left for them to do. It is America that has failed them & not the other way around. Should they be peaceful? YES! And so should you be. So should you
