Black Lives Matter: The Murder of George Floyd

Tualatin National Wildlife Refuge

Went to a quiet place today.  Watched the video last night after work of the brutal murder of George Floyd.  I watched the murder without looking away, while everything in my being wanted to leap through the phone screen and rescue him from his hateful, racist perpetrators.  All I could do was watch in horror and cry, my heart heavy with pain.  George Floyd’s life mattered.  Black lives matter.

It’s time I start actively listening.  Silence is unacceptable.  Knowledge is power.
