TN State Rep. Shaundelle Brooks knows the devastating toll of gun violence. Her son, Akilah DaSilva, was killed in the 2018 Waffle House mass shooting. Since then, Shaundelle has fought to ensure that no one else has to suffer the same grief. Akilah should be here. @natrixdreammom.bsky.social
Akilah, my precious baby boy!
I miss and love you more than words can express. Another BIRTHDAY without your physical presence, yet your light still shines so brightly. I hold your smile, your laugh, and every memory close to my heart. I will carry you with me until we meet again.🩵😢 #LongLiveAkilah!

As a mother whose son was snatched from me in a mass shooting, my first thought was of the parents who will never see their child walk back through the door.
That pain is crushing, it never goes away. Yesterday, it sat heavy on my heart!

Day 2
The monster who murdered my baby Akilah in the Waffle House mass shooting is trying to appeal his conviction.
He stole my son’s life. And now he wants another chance?
Where is Akilah’s second chance?
We’ll fight for justice every single time.

Back in court today, still fighting for justice for my son Akilah.
He was only 23, talented, kind, full of life.
The man who took him from me wants another trial. But where’s Akilah’s second chance?
We won’t let the truth be rewritten.
