#ICantBreathe #BlackLivesMatter | Click video or click HERE.

Black men and boys killed by police.

I can't breathe

Impunity for the killers - no justice, no peace.

I can't breathe

Militarized police met peaceful protesters on their knees.

I can't breathe.

Weapons of war - a show of force on our streets.

I can't breathe.

Disenfranchised youth driven to violence as speech.

I can't breathe.

Cynical media think this makes great TV.

I can't breathe.

This cowardly Congress afraid of losing our seats.

I can't breathe.

Half-hearted reform when there's more that we need.

I can't breathe.

Just thinking about the despair that this breeds.

I can't breathe.

Black lives matter. Hear my pleas.

I can't breathe. I can't breathe.

I yield.
