A sacred fire has been lit for Chantel Moore and will be burning until Sunday. Since April, police in Canada have killed at least five Indigenous people: Chantel Moore, Eishia Hudson, Jason Collins, Stewart Kevin Andrews and Everett Patrick.

"The Black community understands that not everyone knows what to say right now and that is OK. But [...] complete silence is betrayal. Not even simply acknowledging the pain or the situation just further hurts the Black people in your life."

Sensitivity trainings and diversity aren’t enough.

We are done explaining our humanity, while more unarmed black bodies are killed in the streets or in their homes.

We need to rethink our public safety system and build one based on compassion.

The use of police as first responders in situations of crisis only leads to more deaths. Officers who are called to help individuals get medical treatment often end up shooting them instead. More here: https://t.co/5k7Y5gG3oz
