#500EmpoweringAfricanStories: Breonna Taylor
By: Sakina Adamali Breonna Taylor was a young woman, a dedicated emergency medical assistant, and an aspiring nurse. On March 13, 2020 as she lay asleep in her own bed, the police raided her house, shooting her multiple times. The raid was apparently targeted to another person in the neighborhood who was already detained by the time the police entered Breonna’s home. Her story is a tragic one, but her name sings the tune of freedom against police brutality for Black Americans
