"I can't breathe. I have my ID right here. My name is Elijah McClain. That's my house. I was just going home. I'm an introvert. I'm just
different. That's all. I'm so sorry. I have no gun. I don't do that stuff. I don't do any fighting. Why
are you attacking me?”
“I don't even kill flies!I don't eat meat! But I don't judge people, I don't judge people who do eat meat. Forgive me. AlI I was trying to do was become better. I will do it. I will do anything. Sacrifice my identity. I'll do it. You all are phenomenal. You are beautiful.”
AndI love you. Try to forgive me. I am a mood gemini.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Ow, that really hurt. You
all are very strong. Team work makes the dream
work...(crying)..oh I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to do that. I just can't breathe correctly”
“(proceeds
to vomit from the pressure to his chest and
neck)."

“While I think it is important to share
videos and info about how great
people like Elijah McClain were, I
think it's equally important to note
that Black people shouldn't need to be extraordinary...

when they say:
"What about Black-on-Black crime?"
"Black-on-Black crime" is a talking
point mostly peddled by racists when they have nothing else to contribute to a conversation about police brutality.
📷| via @candicepatton instagram story
The myth of "Black-on-Black crime" can be addressed in one simple way: with data.
Statistical data provided by the FBI
shows that 90.1% of Black homicide
victims were killed by Black perpetrators.

Similarly, 83.5% of white homicide
victims were killed by white perpetrators.
So, what about white-on-white crime?

when they say:
"BLUE LIVES MATTER!"
There is no such thing as a "blue life." People choose to become police officers. It is a job. No one chooses their skin color.
📷| via @candicepatton instagram story
...Saying "blue lives matter" is simply a feeble attempt at undermining the "Black Lives Matter" movement.
