On National Gun Violence Awareness Day, we #WearOrange to honor the victims and survivors of gun violence––which continues to disproportionately harm Black communities. Then keep speaking up, voting, and changing laws across the country.

Breonna Taylor would have been 27 years old today. She isn’t, because three Louisville cops shot her to death in her own bedroom. No arrests have been made. I wrote last month about the slain EMT and why she was essential, long before the pandemic arrived. https://t.co/9O91ISvC9s

Friends and family agree that Breonna Taylor was drawn to a career in health care because she cared about people.

"She always said that she would be a legend," a friend says. "I just never imagined it would be like this."
She would've turned 27 today. https://t.co/LABXT71WTx

Today would have been Breonna Taylor's 27th birthday. She should be here with us. She had so much more to give the world. Join us in demanding justice for Breonna Taylor and all of the many Black women killed by police terror. pic.twitter.com/QldjWa9r4I

Breonna Taylor should be celebrating her 27th birthday today. But she was killed when Louisville police broke down her door with an illegal no-knock warrant and no body cams and shot her eight times. Yet the three officers who killed her are still free.https://t.co/pvM5znjBdf

In March, police killed her when they stormed her home while she was sleeping, looking for a man who did not live there.
84 days later, no officers have been charged. pic.twitter.com/WuEvm0GTOa
