'I march because I want my children to know that it's OK for them to be heard. I march because this has got to stop.'
"My stepson, Elijah Clayton, was killed in Jacksonville at the EA Sports gaming tournament. He was one of the happiest black men I knew, and he died at the hands of an angry white man over a video game. I will never forget the way my son cried that day when he called to tell me his brother was killed. My family and I are still healing from that while trying to make sense of the murders of so many other innocent black men and women.
There needs to be a change, and I want to stand beside those who deserve that change in the fight for their freedom. I have not suffered the way black people have suffered for centuries, and I will leverage that privilege and any power I have to protect the safety black people deserve. That is why I protest.""I have listened and heard the call for justice from black people. I am a trauma nurse.
