a reminder that you can spread awareness WITHOUT spreading the traumatizing video. stop sharing it and putting it on the tl; your hispanic/latino oomfs especially don’t want to see it. but also keep your autoplay off just in case and be mindful when scrolling through the hashtag
Police in Alameda, CA wrote in a report that Mario Gonzalez was violent before his arrest and died in the hospital after a “medical emergency.”
Body cam footage shows he was calm and peaceful. He died on-site after they knelt on his back for 5 minutes. https://t.co/s8vP7Bq2zY
“They broke my family for no reason.”
The mother of #MarioGonzalez says her autistic son is asking for Mario & she doesn’t know how to break the news to him. Mario’s mom saw police body cam video & she says her son answered police’s questions & did not insult them. @nbcbayarea
