Di non yo: George Floyd, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Sandra Bland, Michael Brown …. Sa a se pa sou hashtags ak medya sosyal. Sa yo se moun ki te swa yon papa, pitit yon moun, yon matant, tonton, frè ak sè, kouzen, vwazen, zanmi ... yon èt imen.

Nan sèvis,
