Today, @HoustonHealth is reporting 1,317 new cases of #COVID19, bringing the total case count for the City of Houston to 20,011.
This is a two day total as the health department does not report on Sundays.
Unfortunately, our total death count increases by 5 to 224.
Horrifying. You start with the tiny possibility that two officers may be walking over to deescalate the abusive one.
Instead, they join in beating a man trying to get out of traffic.
This isn’t a problem of bad apples or incidents. This is an institutional and systemic crisis.
I asked several Houston musicians for songs that remind them of their moms. The answers were expectedly sweet. #MothersDay
