There might be people who will say duh that’s obvious, but there are young activists, protestors and very green but very passionate ones who won’t think it’s obvious.

Shaun King is known to have worked with the police to get innocent Black men arrested before:

When I read about what happened to LaPorsha Washington and her daughter #jazminebarnes this past Tues, I stopped in my tracks. After all, this is my fav holiday of the year, a time that I tend to celebrate far into January. But that was over now. I was speechless. And heartbroken. And I wept. For her mother and her siblings who witnessed and were injured in this act, for her family and community whose young one was taken from them suddenly and senselessly, for all of us shaking our heads and wondering, What Is Happening.

To think that a seven-year-old lost her life so violently on a day that symbolizes newness and fresh beginnings... sometimes, words truly fail.

But sometimes — in those best of times — words can help heal.  ... Please take a moment out of your day and send a letter of support to Jazmine’s mother, LaPorsha Washington. Let her know that we are with her, that she is not alone in her grief. That she is lifted, believed and loved.

And to #jazminebarnes who deserved many more years to express the fullness of your life and potential: this year is for you, lil sis. 👧🏾 #sayhername #blacklivesmatter @millionhoodies4justice #notonemore Action 🔗 in Bio ☝🏽 (link)

❤✊🏾🙏🏾Praying for this family! #JazmineBarnes ! Can we just go ahead and name these cowards the real #terrorists of America/World. Swipe right! ------> . . Authorities are still investigating a motive for the shooting, which happened in northeastern Harris County close to 7 a.m. Sunday. LaPorsha Washington and her daughters are black. The suspect is described as a bearded white male, possibly in his 40s. Jazmine Barnes was killed when a man in a red or maroon pickup truck pulled up next to Washington and opened fire in the unprovoked shooting, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office. The killing has shattered a Texas family, traumatizing one sister who witnessed it and sparked a search for the suspect. "It's our belief that it was totally unprovoked, whatever it was, and we're leaving no stone unturned. We're going to leave every motive out there as a possibility," Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez told reporters #CNN . .

My heart is beyond heavy...💔😢 ° I wish I could start the morning with happier news, fríends. Unfortunately, these aren't happier times. What good are our social media accounts if we fail to use them during crucial times like these? ° As a community and country, can we need to stop saying things like, "Oh, this could have been my baby" and instead come together and work cohesively as 👏🏽 IF 👏🏽 SHE👏🏽 IS👏🏽?! No more hashtags! Enough is enough. How many more lives have to be stolen? Let's find the person or persons responsible for this. ° And to @realdonaldtrump, if there was ever a time to STEP UP and be a leader, it's NOW! Show us that Jazmine's life is worth more than a wall, or a budget, or someone "picking on you". Show us that you care as much about the "regular" people in this country as you do the ones who profit off of them. PROVE to us that this baby's skin doesn't have to be any other color than what it IS in order for her to matter! ° ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! ° PLEASE if anyone knows anything, please come forward. That minute detail you may think doesn't matter may be EXACTLY what's needed to crack open this case wide open! ° Let us all do our part to help find those responsible. Together, we can. ° ° #jazminebarnes #news #houston #texas #murder #children #kids #justiceforjazmine #trump #america #headlines #prayer #God #faith #help #family #tips #reward #crime #help #fox #nbc #abc #cbs #worldnews #love #faith #Repost https://www.instagram.com/p/BsIiol8BuzJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tro0wdvu5mbv

"Jazmine “Jazzy Fay” Barnes was born February 11, 2011 to Chris Cevilla and La’Porsha Washington. She was the youngest of eight. She was a Second grader at Monahan Elementary school. Charismatic, affectionate and loving, she lived her short life happily surrounded by siblings and extended family that loved her dearly. At the tender age of seven years old she had already made her career path abundantly clear to everyone who knew her. She planned to be a school teacher. Committed to this path she organized her siblings into pupils and administration and played school every chance she got. She developed a reputation for helping people, be it her elementary classmates or younger cousins she always volunteered to lend a helping hand. When not practicing for her future vocation, she loved to play dress up— slipping on her mother’s heels and jewelry and pretending to prepare for a night out on the town. She was a girl’s girl. Dark sandy blonde hair, tightly set almond shaped eyes, a smile that radiated and disarmed. She was a ray of sunshine. She was what children ought to be. She deserved so much more than this world had to offer her." -- @leemerrittesq #JazmineBarnes #JusticeForJazmine https://www.instagram.com/p/BsZPWHyAHWY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1urwstaqr1cwa
