Lone #activist #IeshiaEvans stands her ground while offering her hands for arrest by #riotPolice during a #protest against #policeBrutality outside the #BatonRouge #Police Department in #Louisiana on July 9, 2016. Evans, a 28-year-old Pennsylvania nurse and mother of one, traveled to Baton Rouge to protest against the #shooting of #AltonSterling
I know that older generations fought, bled, faced incarceration, institutionalization, sterilization, death for justice. And still do.
I didn't have it on my bingo card that continuing to advocate and role-model #DEI as a business leader would be seen as a radical act against the state. And here we are.
Thank you to #IeshiaEvans, the Pennsylvania nurse who role modeled for all of us what it looks like to be courageous in the face of a terrorist police state. #refuse #resist from whatever little bit of privilege you've got in life. And if you don't have that privilege, lean on those of us who do... what will we choose to do with it?
