This tragedy hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves.

Frank Tyson, a 51 year old Black man, is dead after police tackled him and pinned him with a knee on his back. He gasped “I can’t breathe” 7 times & cops told him to “Shut the f**k up, you’re fine.”

@QasimRashid. In 2020, George Floyd, a 46-yr-old black American man, was murdered in Minneapolis by Derek Chauvin, a 44-yr-old white police officer. Floyd had been arrested after a store clerk alleged he made a purchase using a counterfeit $20 bill. Chauvin knelt on Floyd's neck for over 9 minutes while Floyd was handcuffed & lying face-down in a street.Two other police officers, J. Alexander Kueng and Thomas Lane, assisted Chauvin in restraining Floyd. #RacistCops
