George Floyd reminder by Barack Obama goes left
Barack Obama reminds Americans of needed reform with post about George Floyd one day after Uvalde school massacre.
The former President spoke on Uvalde on May 24th saying, Across the country, parents are putting their children to bed, reading stories, singing lullabies—and in the back of their minds, they’re worried about what might happen tomorrow after they drop their kids off at school, or take them to a grocery store or any other public space.
It’s long past time for action, any kind of action. And it’s another tragedy—a quieter but no less tragic one—for families to wait another day.
But it was on May 25th that he showed empathy for school massacre. Nevertheless, reminding America of the daily Massacre’s of black people with George Floyd anniversary.
As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.
In the aftermath of his murder, a new generation of activists rose up to channel their anguish into organized action, launching a movement to raise awareness of systemic racism and the need for criminal justice and police reform.
Some people did not agree with his pov. One Tweet reposted saying, I wish I had the time to block every single like on this tweet. That would take care of at least 80% of the liberal bots. Sick.
Another said, The kids bodies aren’t even cold yet but never mind that. This is actually good because it’s the mask slipping
‘Saint Obama’ shows his real face.
However, others understood the purpose of bringing awareness to all unnecessary deaths.
Several hearts were posted for Floyd. Including comments like, Slaughtered two years ago today.
Another person said, Got white folks pissed off by honoring the memory of a black man killed by police. Like we can’t call attention two two different problems our country faces at once. We gotta fix the gun problem, AND the police problems. Not difficult.
