When the cousin of Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors died earlier this month after being tased by Los Angeles police, a narrative quickly emerged among activists.
Comedian and writer Travon Free wrote on Twitter, “The LAPD murdered Keenan Anderson. A beloved high school English teacher and father who FLAGGED THEM DOWN FOR HELP after a car accident. He was a threat to no one. He needed help and it cost him his life. The LAPD must be held accountable for this at all costs.”
