GEORGE FLOYD PEACEFUL CELEBRATION IN VANCOUVER BC. JUNE 5TH - 3 PM
Remember COVID19 - Take all precautions, while attending this event, bring candles, snacks
Right now, we have a choice to fight for the moment for change
Last words of George Floyd, a 46-year-old man murdered by US police officer who pinned him down, kneeling on his neck for seven minutes, until he suffocated "It's my face man I didn't do nothing serious man please please please I can't breathe please man please somebody please man I can't breathe I can't breathe please (inaudible) man can't breathe, my face just get up I can't breathe please (inaudible) I can't breathe sh*t I will I can't move mama mama I can't my knee my nuts I'm through I'm through I'm claustrophobic my stomach hurt my neck hurts everything hurts some water or something please please I can't breathe officer don't kill me they gon' kill me man come on man I cannot breathe I cannot breathe they gon' kill me they gon' kill me I can't breathe I can't breathe please sir please please please I can't breathe" He then shut his eyes and stopped pleas, was pronounced dead shortly after. Come together and let us all speak up, let's raise our voices to join everyone calling for an end to these systematic and coordinated killings, and asking the world leaders to DO the same. Right now, we have a choice to honor all those we've already lost, raising our voices, and taking actions will stop another killing. Asante sana.
