Today my heart breaks. It breaks for a man who was taken from this world by another. So many saw your cries, yet no one heard. You laid there with another man’s weight on your neck, begging for you mother’s help. The words, “I can’t breathe,” now a fraise that’s haunting.
My heart breaks for you, your family, your community. Our world, our country, lays in shambles. We need help. We need change. This can’t be accepted as our “normal.” Are we not better than this? Is one man’s life not as valuable as another?
I can’t stand this. I can’t stand the evil that man is capable of. God help us. Save us from ourselves.
George Floyd, may your soul rest In peace in a place much better than this.
A Latta Words 
His life taken not just by another man but by a Police Officer – someone who is to arrest but also to protect and he did neither!
