It's been a trying week not just because this is month 1,999 of the COVID-19 pandemic and life as we know it has been turned upside-down. Nope, this has been a trying week because even in a pandemic cops won't stop killing black people. On May 25, George Floyd was arrested for writing a bad check at a store in Minneapolis. One of the arresting officers was caught on video kneeling on Floyd's neck until he stopped responding. Floyd died. There have been protests. People are hurting. Me? I'm still processing.
