This is Leshia Evans. She’s a 28-year-old nurse assistant and mother to a 5-year-old son. She was attending her first protest in Baton Rouge. She was arrested and held for 24 hours. 

so graceful

I saw these tweets earlier, some veteran turned activist tweeted “Baton Rouge cops look ridiculous, I never wore this much armor on the front lines”

And that struck me almost as hard as these photos, used to give the tweet context. What was she going to do to them? Start beating them with a sandal? Why do we, as white people, allow peaceful protesters to be treated as more threatening than armed fascists just for being black?

Tired of this shit man. White supremacy must die. I hope she’s doing well.

Look at them. Now look at her.

This is how scared white supremacy is of black people.

For no good fucking reason. All we want is Freedom.
