Dear George Floyd.
I write this to you today in hopes that your soul is in peace.
I write this in hopes that your martyrdom won't be another headline or simply another name in the papers. I write this in hopes that perhaps another man of Color won't lose his life to racism.
I write to you today to let you know that we will fight. We will fight so no man has to lose his life because of the color of his skin. We will fight so no race is called "thugs" again. We will fight for another 7 years for those 7 minutes of pain you felt.
Our fight is not over. Our fight has just begun. No man's life will be as cheap as a packet of cigarettes again.
25 May 2020, and George Floyd will be remembered.
