The grand jury’s decision not to file a single criminal charge directly related to #BreonnaTaylor’s killing is an affront to her memory.

#Breonna’s family has waited 6 long months for justice, only to be slapped in the face by the grand jury’s indifference.

We are a community in despair but we do not seek revenge, as Attorney General #DanielCameron so offensively suggested.

We seek healing.
We seek change.
We ask our brothers and sisters to demonstrate with us peacefully in Breonna’s name, and we plead with city authorities and police to allow us space to express our grief without provocation.

In the words of @louisville_ul president & CEO @sadiqalul, “All we want is freedom and justice.”

A remarkable woman. An Icon. A Legend.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was each of these and more. A pioneer for civil and women’s rights and a force of power in the courts, we mourn the loss of this phenomenal woman. The future she shaped is one that we will be eternally better for. In this tremendous loss, among the many great figures that are now gone too soon, we in their honor, in HER honor, will continue to fight for what is right. We fight on.
May she rest in power. ... See more
