“Trey was our little quiet light. He was sweet, well-mannered, and would give you the world if he could. We ask that you continue to keep our family in your prayers as we walk through these unforeseen times.” — Trey’s family
On Monday, 21-year-old Delta State University student, Demartravion “Trey” Reed, was found “hanging from a tree” on campus.
While the full details of Trey’s death have not yet been released, history compels us to take this with utmost seriousness. This nation carries the weight of generations of lynchings and acts of racial terror meant to silence, intimidate, and destroy Black life. In that shadow, we cannot accept silence or half truths. We demand transparency, accountability, and a full investigation into what happened to Trey.
Our hearts are with Trey’s family, his friends, and all who loved him. We honor his life, his kindness, his gentleness, his light, and we pray that the world remembers him for the joy and love he gave, not only the questions that remain about his death.
I just overheard someone say “I’m not voting for Kamala Harris because she is a woman, I’m voting for Kamala Harris because I AM a woman”
This needs to be said more.
Sonya Massey was somebody. She was treated like nothing by the officers who shot her after she called them for help.
Sonya should still be alive today.
We say ‘Black lives matter’ because it’s clear that to many, our lives don’t matter.
Sonya mattered. We matter.
some of y’all are going to “but she’s a cop” your way right into a Christian nationalist dictatorship that will result in decades of civil rights progress being rolled back just for the sake of getting moral superiority points on social media. grow up.
“Kamala is a Cop”
Yes and Trump is a dictator who is itching to take every single one of your human rights away in an instant. Stop the performative activism and get it the fuck together.
