"We are united & if they try to divide us they will not succeed." NYC has been labeled an "anarchist jurisdiction" but so many diverse Brooklyn neighbors came out tonight in sorrow, pain & anger to say that there was no justice today for #BreonnaTaylor. #BlackLivesMatter
A massive crowd in front of Barclays laid down flat, observing the full 8 minutes 46 seconds #GeorgeFloyd choked under a policeman's knee. We heard so many voices of pain tonight. #BreonnaTaylor #BlackLivesMatter
It's jarring yet fitting to have words of #RBG, daughter of Brooklyn, as backdrop tonight. Some of the young people leading tonight have been out here every day since May. They are exhausted yet relentlessly calling for justice for #BreonnaTaylor. #BlackLivesMatter
Tonight in an orderly & peaceable fashion we took over the Manhattan Bridge to call for justice for #BreonnaTaylor & remind our city govt these are #ourstreets. Unity is powerful & heartening. May we bring this to the ballot box this year & next. #ourstreets #BlackLivesMatter
Thank you @JumaaneWilliams for marching shoulder to shoulder with Brooklyn tonight & throughout these weeks of pain & outrage. True leadership at a time when this feels so rare.
