Tony McDade's life was taken on May 27th due to police brutality. He's been misgendered by the media, and his name has been absent amidst everything going on. There'll be a vigil on June 20th in Nashville for all who can attend. If you can't, share this information and stay safe.
Today marks 4 years since the tragedy at the Pulse Night Club. We keep in memory those 49 whose lives were taken from them and hold our heads high and show solidarity and support during these difficult times. The world will know that love wins in the end.
