Protesters telling media to go home and yelling at photographers for taking pictures. Both protesting and reporting are constitutionally protected activities.

I recorded this Wednesday, and it has been sitting with me. I was hit with tear gas earlier this year during protests, and to hear Louisville Police threaten chemical agents on a community crying out for justice is unspeakable.
Chemical agents should be banned from police use.

Stigmatizing black people has cost America AT LEAST $16,000,000,000,000 (that's 12-zeroes) since 2000, says Citigroup. @BMeCommunity @dalila_says @TheComNetwork @TPWGiveBetter @mellemelb @msalainabeverly @VanJones68 @dnbornstein

.@atticascott4ky has been peacefully leading protests for racial justice and calling for systemic change through policy reform. She introduced the state-wide Breonna’s law. These charges are infuriating and unwarranted. Release Rep. Scott, dismiss the charges, and apologize.
State Rep. @atticascott4ky faces a first-degree rioting charge. That's a Class D felony — the same level offense levied against former LMPD officer Brett Hankison in connection with the Breonna Taylor case. wfpl.org/protesters-arrested…

@UofLPresNeeli I am certain you are aware that one of our star students @Ashantilynn01 was arrested last night with other leaders demanding justice for Breonna Taylor. UofL needs to publicly stand with them.

I know we can dismantle structural racism. I know we can abolish generational poverty. I know we can create a society where every person has the ability to surpass their dreams.
That’s what I’m fighting for.

Instead of bracing ourselves and hoping that the protests for justice die down, let’s come together and deal with the racism, inequity, and corruption that require us to protest in the first place.
Let’s not block out the cries for healing. Let’s answer them.

It is expected that the Grand Jury decision in the Breonna Taylor case will be announced soon. I have no inside information on the exact timing or what that decision will be, but there are some things that are clear to me at this point. 1/11

The 6 month mark in any sustained crisis is always difficult. We have all adjusted to this "new normal", but might now feel like we're running out of steam. Yet, at best, we are only 1/3 the way through this marathon. How can we keep going? THREAD /x

i still don’t have all the answers:
i’m still learning the language
i’m still asking the questions
i’m still having ideas challenged
i’m still having patterns checked
i’m still showing up
i’m still doing the work
so should you.

Here's what we saw them do to the supplies.
I cannot believe what I just witnessed. They pulled up onto the square with a police siren on and did this. #Louisville

1/2Before the preferred mainstream narrative grows too large to correct, know this. I was there. An entirely peaceful protest was assaulted by the police with dangerous and painful tear gas, repeatedly. But with no obvious strategic intent except to disperse and terrorize.

Are you a white woman who is feeling sad about everything that's going on but unsure what you should be doing?
