Dear George Floyd
A letter to a gamechanger
Dear George,
Wow! Are you watching current world events? Are you seeing the turn of events that your assassination has unleashed?
Your story has taken over the airwaves. Covid-19 who?
What a dreadful day that was when your name was joined with Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, Eric Garner, Freddie Gray, and others. I believe that Monday, May 25, 2020, will go down as a marker day in world history. Kind of like 9/11.
Why?
As painful as the death of the other African-Americans was, yours was different in that we saw your face and the face of your murderer.
We saw your anguish and we saw his contentment.
We heard your pleas and we saw his indifference.
We heard your cries and we saw his pleasure.
We saw evil personified unleashed on a brother.
As over the top, as some people may think I am, I saw the anti-Christ. When that murderer looked down at you, he was admiring his handiwork like an artist admires his painting. What a monster!
I’m so sorry this happened to you, brother. You didn’t deserve this. We all know that you were no angel but that is irrelevant. To that cop, you…
