Renee Nicole Good, 37, was murdered four fifths of a mile from where George Perry Floyd, Jr., 46, was murdered in May of 2020.
I want the media to understand just how close what happened today is to where George Floyd was murdered. 0.8 miles.

one billion percent this
i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

It’s absolutely the right call and fucking surreal that our public schools have to close because of the threat posed by OUR OWN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. I am beyond livid.
This the right call.
Please check in with neighbors who may need support with childcare.

Tonight I really need to read some Octavia E. Butler.
The audiobook of Sower has actress Lynne Thigpeg as the narrator, and it's like medicine.
I just wish she wasn't so right

I hate how much this resonates.
Looking back, everyone will one day realize that all that woke stuff was right. Unfortunately, being right won’t erase the suffering.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions
FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

I didn’t wanna be that guy but this is 100% spot on. #JusticeForReneeGood is a perfect hashtag. But if you weren’t amplifying Say Her Name for Sandra Bland, Breyonna Taylor, Atatiana Jefferson, or the multitude of other women killed by law enforcement please don’t use that hashtag now.

just gutted, no words
It's one thing to process this tragedy seeing a mother murdered in front of her wife. It's another to see our government blatantly lie and smear her. I'm filled with so much rage seeing these people be so openly evil. They are absolute monsters.
