FIGHT FOR BLACK PEOPLE’S RIGHTS.

speak about this, make their voices stronger.

PLEASE.

HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO TO CONTRIBUTE AND HELP!!

• CALL (612) 324-4499 and demand justice for george floyd. what you have to say it’s written on the pic here!

• IF YOU’RE FROM OUTSIDE THE US, send emails to these two addresses: police@minneapolismn.gov and minneapolis311@minneapolismn.gov and WRITE THIS:

Hello, my name is ___ and I am a resident of ___ . This message is for DA Mike Freeman. I am emailing you today because of the George Floyd case. I am calling for the prosecution of Derek Chauvin #1082 and his partner Tou Thao #7162 to the fullest extent of the law and that you will not rest until this last happens. To my understanding, Floyd was under arrest for an alleged, non-violent crime and bystander testimony (including video footage which will corroborate this story) will prove he never resisted arrest. The inhumane approach that the officers chose was one that showed recklessness, wanton and blatant disregard for a black man’s life. It resulted in murder and therefore should not be taken lightly.

• SIGN EVERY PETITION to stand with the victims of this injustice and violence — this is the LINK to a thread of PETITIONS TO SIGN! https://twitter.com/yericvit/status/1265801832930045953?s=21

George Floyd.

Killed by Minneapolis Police Department recently. Suffocated and murdered. A grocery stores called the police when they thought he was writing a bad check. This man had his knee on george’s neck for 10 minutes. Cutting off his airway. Took his life and treated him as nothing while putting his on a stretcher. They watched him DIE.

THIS IS AMERICA.
