I Can’t Breathe

Note: I felt called to write this original piece in December 2014, following the non-indictment of the police officer who killed Eric Garner. Some language has been updated, and the picture was edited to include George Floyd, the Black man killed by a Minneapolis police officer in May 2020. May the memories of Eric Garner and George Floyd, and so many others killed by racism, be for a blessing.
