#RunWithMaud

Ahmaud Arbery
Say his name.

"Running while black should not be a death sentence." - Kamala Harris

Ahmaud Arbery, age 25, was taking a run. He was a football player in hgih school and running was something he did. On February 23, ten weeks ago, Arbrey was taking a run, in the middle of the afternoon, when he was murdered by two white supremacists, a father and son, men with ties to law enforcement.

Who they were and why they did this is a matter for a jury to decide, as yesterday they were finally arrested. The fact is, a black man in American is a subject of suspicion and fear and anger by members of the white majority and as a reslt, they are penalized for who they are, in incarceration, in harm, in death.

Yesterday, it was announced that the DOJ would drop charges against Michael Flynn, who committed treasonable acts and lied to the FBI, crimes to which he pled guilty. Abrey was murdered for Running While Black. The racist double-standard in this country is so plainly evident, and yet nothing changes.

I run, and I run without fear. Because I am white, because I am a man. I have never been anyone's target.

Today I run with Ahmaud, because I was asked to. I have been asked by my friends to be an ally in the fight for justice. This weekend folks all over are asked to run or walk 2.23 miles (2/23) for justice. We must run alone, of course, to keep social distance, and that is only appropriate. It is symbolic, too.

Please look into this case. Learn more about the Justice for Ahmaud campaign. Sign the petition. And take a moment this weekend to run with Maud.
