For those who drove under the highway overpass Sunday in Coupeville, there was a message which could be seen in both directions.
We live on a rock in the middle of the water, several states away, but the death of George Floyd, the black man murdered on-camera by a Minneapolis police officer, should rock all of us to our core.
Remember his name, and remember the names of the men and women who came before him – those whose deaths made the news, and those who did not.
It shouldn’t be hard to say “black lives matter.”
But we also need to go beyond words, and prove the same with our actions.
There is no other way.
It shouldn’t be hard to say all lives matter. Just not black lives.
So true, ALL LIVES MATTER PERIOD!!!!!
