@WAVY_News Time to fully pardon Matthew Rushin!

The life of George Floyd matters. He should still be alive today, and no courtroom decision can bring him back. But this decision is an important step towards justice—for George Floyd, for his family, for his community, and for our entire country.

Daunte Wright should still be alive. George Floyd should still be alive. Donovon Lynch should still be alive. Natasha McKenna should still be alive. Marcus-David Peters should still be alive. Xzavier Hill should still be alive. India Kager should still be alive.
#DuanteWright should be alive. White folks: withdraw your implied consent. #DefundThePolice
Brooklyn Center police killed #DaunteWright during a traffic stop in MN, just miles from where Derek Chauvin is on trial for killing #GeorgeFloyd. As the community took to the streets to protest, police used tear gas and flash bangs to disperse folks. bbc.com/news/world-us-…

8 minutes. 46 seconds. No justice no peace. Justice for George Floyd.
JUST IN: Matthew Rushin, a former ODU student with autism who faced 10 years in prison after a Virginia Beach crash that left two people seriously injured, has been released after a pardon from Gov. Ralph Northam. wavy.com/news/matthew-r…
We all watched George Floyd get murdered, and now for the next several weeks, the entire news cycle will be dominated by Derek Chauvin’s defense lawyers arguing that George Floyd does not deserve justice. That's trauma. It's ok to not be alright. Take space for yourself.
I support the VBCPS equity policy and am disappointed in the amount of misinformation being shared with the public.
Tuning into the Virginia Beach School Board meeting and proud of those standing up for the equity policy! We need to continue to keep our city officials accountable. @vbschools @Meli_Smith3
Had the pleasure of meeting with @Meli_Smith3 about our upcoming SURJ chapter meeting. Join us March 24th to hear more from Melissa about equity within our school systems, anti-racist education and celebrating diversity in the classroom. DM us for more info!
One year ago, Breonna Taylor was murdered by police officers. It is a disgrace that we are still waiting on justice. The time is long overdue for us to combat systemic racism and a broken criminal justice system.
PLEASE READ. Matthew Rushin needs our help.
LIVE: Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam is holding a bill signing ceremony to sign "Breonna's Law," passed in honor of the late Breonna Taylor. It prohibits no-knock warrants in Virginia. Watch live here: bit.ly/2slyVyZ More on the bill: bit.ly/2Tu7Gge
Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam signed "Breonna's Law" on Monday, banning no-knock warrants in the commonwealth. Virginia is only the third state to adopt a law banning no-knock warrants and the first since Breonna Taylor was fatally shot in her home by police earlier this year.
This Native American Heritage Day, we give thanks to our Indigenous communities and their ancestors. As we celebrate their rich heritage and contributions, let’s commit to writing a new future together — one built on a strong partnership and filled with opportunity for all.
