The other day, I met two people who recently moved to Minnesota from a red state, bc of the civil protections that MN still has in place. Turns out they live just a few blocks from where #AlexPretti was killed, and we were having our meetup just two blocks from the memorial. I went to pay my respects. Much like the #GeorgeFloyd memorial, the sacred silence surrounding it was palpable. A few others were also walking around reading poems, looking at drawings, taking it in

The Ten Commandments can be displayed in Classrooms in Illinois, USA — a 5th Circuit Court Judge made the judicial Decision and set such malformed and #unconstitutional #Precedent.

A federal Judge blocked the installation of Images of the #enslaved _Persons_, whom George #Washington (1st President of the USA) owned as Property; the Sentiment for the Blockage of recognizing the Histories of the People(s) of the USA: it would "disparage" the Public. (FFS! The Descendants of the enslaved Persons ARE OUR PEOPLE TODAY! It is not only disparaging to them to willfully ignore their historic #Abuse and #Maltreatment, but also a disgrace to our Nation, especially to those whom wish to repair the Great Chasm that was built by Racists.)

The Names of the Dead from a Landslide in California, USA were read on public Radio in New York, USA. I have yet to hear the Names of #BreonnaTaylor or #GeorgeFloyd on the radio. Oh, and the Governor of #California knows some of the Dead personally; maybe despotic influence has had a say in whose Lives are remembered and recalled to the Public.

EDIT: "knowns" -> "knows".
