This morning at 5:45am my (black) boyfriend was woken up in his home with a gun and a flashlight pointed at his face by @OttawaPolice. 10 police officers had let themselves into his family home in Vanier, Ottawa, interrogated his 11 year old MINOR brother, and his 17 year...Pt.1
a YEAR since we lost Breonna...and for so many of y’all she was just a hashtag, a tumblr mood board. but besides the posts, some of you do ZERO of the work within yourselves or your community to lift up black women. shame.
