Marcellus Williams, a Black man, was executed on September 24, despite credible evidence that called his conviction into question and widespread support for clemency. Governor Mike Parson refused to grant it.
Today, Parson commuted the sentence of Eric DeValkenaere, a white Kansas City police officer convicted of murdering Cameron Lamb, a Black man, after unlawfully entering his property without a warrant. DeValkenaere walked free.
A Black man with overwhelming evidence of innocence: Executed.
A white officer guilty of killing a Black man: Released.
This is more than a miscarriage of justiceâthis is systemic racism in action.

A bunch of cry baby billionaires who never served in the military want to force millions of our troops to go without pay at Christmas.
But do go on about the price of eggs wonât you.
What I learned in 2024;
Do you support Obamacare?
Yes: 30%
No: 70%
Do you support the Affordable Care Act?
Yes: 70%
No: 30%
This is the power of brandingâand the hypocrisy of misinformation.
âWe can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to existâ
