PART ONE: WHAT I KNOW FOR CERTAIN
SETTING: MINNEAPOLIS , MN
TIME: NOVEMBER 18, 2022
(2 years after COVID-19-19)
This is my Truth as I know it and have lived it for the last decade. People, Places and events are all factual.
I am a Transgender African American Female living in the state coined " Minnesota Nice !" Police brutality is on the uprise. The Twin Cities and the nation have been torn apart over a inconceivable act of violence that was recorded for the whole world to see. One Man is dead due to a Knee on his neck. One uniformed officers is now a murdered and three others have stood by doing nothing to stop it.
Rioting, protesting, violence and distraction ensue as a desperate attempt for the peoples voices to be heard and a movement for change and redemption.
Who will be the voice of the lowest minority in the country. Those of us who have lived in hiding with a cloud of shame and hate attached to the very fiber of their being. Transgender people are infact just that People! Support us, speak with us, learn from us and gain insight into just another attempt to isolate and divide humans in any possible way!
I'm Nikki Lewis and this is my Truth.
