George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Elijah McClain

When will enough be enough? When will those who disregard black lives, who despise unity, who weaponize the Lord’s teachings to further their hatred of all things not like them be held accountable for their wicked ways? 

Ahmoud Arbery Rayshard Brooks, Sandra Bland

Walter Scott, Freddie Gray

That it is not a black problem, it is an American problem, and it won’t be solved by the protest of people of color alone, but by the realization by those who have never had to worry about it that they must acknowledge it, look it directly in the eye, stand up and declare

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH BLACK LIVES MATTER
