When She Wrote the Kentucky AG to Punish the Cops Who Killed Breonna Taylor

26-year-old Breonna Taylor was killed by police in her own home. Like many of us who were outraged by this injustice, Beyoncé wrote a letter to the Kentucky Attorney General, Daniel Cameron calling for a swift decision on the policemen involved in the case.

"Three months have passed — and zero arrests have been made, and no officers have been fired," she wrote. "Don't let this case fall into the pattern of no action after a terrible tragedy. With every death of a Black person at the hands of the police, there are two real tragedies: the death itself, and the inaction and delays that follow it."
