Penn State basketball player Sam Sessoms posted a powerful message on Twitter this morning about racial inequality involving police and African-Americans, in the wake of yesterday’s attack on the US Capitol.
I’m not asking for the police to shoot and beat them like they do us African Americans, I’m asking for them to not shoot us like they don’t shoot them. Is that too much to ask for?
