A thread of black anime voice actors who probably voiced your favorite characters:

[Kristen Clarke @KristenClarkeJD]

This is David McAtee.

He owned YaYa’s BBQ in Louisville, KY. He was in the barbecue business for 30 yrs and aspired to open up a brick & mortar restaurant. He fed cops who came by for free.

He was shot and killed by police today. His life mattered. #BreonnaTaylor #DavidMcAtee
