"We are screaming justice for us, our humanity, this is a human rights issue — this is more than just a civil rights issue,” Angela Rose Myers, Minneapolis NAACP president, said.”

“Meyers spoke about not being a bystander to the wrongs and reviewed the history of violence that whites have perpetuated upon people of color. She said in Minnesota, lynchings of Native Americans and Black people are a part of the history of violence whites must come to terms with, which has led to racial barriers currently in place.
“You’re seeing Black people living in Minnesota and dying because of racism here,” she said. She said people must “re-center” their humanity and that atonement is necessary for progress.”
