Your life, death, and case are forever imprinted on the soul of America, and on my heart. Six years later, this injustice still cuts through me like a knife. I remember when we marched in the streets for you, joined hands in a circle and lit candles for you, screamed, cried, and held one another. That day, I committed myself to the fight for racial justice. I love you. Your life matters. Black Lives Matter. 
Love, 
Ms. G  ]]> 2020-10-01 19:18:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796111096 https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796291132 Your death was crucial. I remember my mom turning on the news and it was being broadcast everywhere that just 5 mins away from my home at Fruitvale station a young unarmed black man was shot and killed by the police. Your case left everybody in shock. They protested for you day and night. Every year on your anniversary your mural is visited by hundreds of people. You are one of the thousands of people who were killed by the police and will never be forgotten. Today I stand by BLACK LIVES MATTER more than ever. 
Sincerely,

There was absolutely no reason for your death and no way to justify it. For you to die while sleeping is disgusting and completely inhumane. I'm so sorry you lost your life to people who could not do their job properly. Your death will not be brushed aside and will be in our hearts. The world failed you and I'm so sorry for that. ]]> 2020-10-01 20:39:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796336529 https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796512959 You did nothing wrong. Being nice to a white woman (which we'll never know what you truly did, but even hitting on a white woman as a 14 year old does not constitute death) should never have resulted in your passing. You were one of the first big public cases to reach national attention, and I commend you for that. There's nothing more you should've or could've done, and I hope one day we can meet in the astral plane or something.]]> 2020-10-01 22:18:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796512959 https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796519659 Your case was not focused on as much as it should've been and it breaks my heart. You were just a child, 12 years old at the park playing with a toy gun with your friends. You did nothing wrong but were still killed because of the color of your skin. I wish I could tell you we've reached justice but what happened to you continues to happen in places all over the world. People of color are being killed by people who were took a vow to "protect". But I want you to know that your case helped open eyes of many. Rest in peace.

Although your death was a tragedy for your family and kids and for people all around the world that felt the pain of the injustices to you, your death sparked commotion and attention to the BLM movement and that means what happened to you, and many many others will not go unnoticed. We will not stop ever until every single person is accounted for and remembered. They will no longer silence us. Your death will never be justified and your name will live on. A police officers intent should not be to kill, no matter what. The 4 fatal shots that hit you that day really show the true colors of our law enforcement. Sorry you were taken so soon, you or anyone deserves this. You served as a US Coast Guard for 2 years, you deserved respect, and being pulled over for a broken tail light, later to lose your life will never be okay.

I am deeply saddened that nearly all people of color are hated in this country. Sadly you paid that with your life, something that nobody deserves. It's because of you, and so many others that we fight against systems of oppression and that we never back down when so may factors tell us to do otherwise, because together we are power.

As if black people are always a threat. That is simply not the case, and it only gets worse when people mischaracterize and dehumanize black people as though they are animals, that they are criminals, and that they are a threat to America. The man who blatantly murdered you out of hatred was given no punishment, and you still have yet to receive your justice. We can't give you justice, but we can remember what you and your situation stands for. I hope that we can one day claim retribution for your death, in any capacity.

To some you and your ancestors were and are people just like any rich or poor, white or brown. Then again to others, you were once and item and forced to work. Although that time has passed, and laws have been put in place to protect you, they are not enough. If the same laws to protect you won’t provide justice for a “mistake” like this then they are not enough. The saddest thing is that it’s not just you or Emmit Till, it is so many more just because of the tone on your skin. It is clear that these things aren’t “fuck ups” or simple mistakes because justice would’ve done it’s do, and locked those officers up just like those officers lock up your fathers, brothers, and uncles. I’m sorry you lived and died through this. Rest easy. ]]> 2020-10-01 22:36:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796538518 https://padlet.com/jgerosa/i0wndxgouggi3ndv/wish/796539542 Hey I hope your doing good in heaven.
