Quote of the Month
“If your response to the death of a 20-year-old Black man, who was pulled over by police for an air freshener violation is ‘he should have complied,’ you don’t understand the fear that Daunte was likely feeling in his encounter with police 10 miles from the Derek Chauvin trial. And you also don’t understand that your question should be, ‘How could the police have apprehended him without killing him?’ Because a badge shouldn’t be a license to kill.” – Bernice King, April 12, 2021
