Say His Name, George Floyd

from What Are You Bringing to the Table · host Tori Lopez

This podcast contains material that may not be suitable for all listeners. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We're bringing it again this week, another unarmed black man killed by the police. We discuss the ongoing story of the killing of George Floyd a black man that was in handcuffs, pinned to the ground and choked until he died by Minneapolis Police Officers. The racism that caused this death is historical within law enforcement and it's too much to bare. We all have to stand up and demand law enforcement reformation. It's not just one bad apple, its a system rooted in racism and oppression that allows for officers to continue to kill unarmed black men. Think about one black man you know personally, think about how much you love and care for him, because he is at 5x risk as his white counterpart to be killed by police. Black people aren't killed for being black, they're killed because we continue to allow racist police officers to be hired and remain on the force. Enough is enough.
