Natalie Desselle-Reid Instagram – I’ve been haunted since Ahmaud Arbery, saddened since Breonna Taylor and heartbroken since George Floyd. The other night in L. A. the curfew was changed from 10 to 9 my husband not knowing and wanting a cold glass of OceanSpray Cranberry Mango (he’s Jamaican😊) decided to go to the grocery store. I was in the back of the house and all I could here was our daughters screaming, “Dad no don’t leave please Dad” I couldn’t do nothing but cry. He felt their fear and relented. That night the last thing I saw before I went to bed was George Floyd’s daughter Gianna and I kept saying to myself, “Why does she look so familiar? “ I said my prayers and went to bed and the answer came in my dreams. The image of Coretta Scott King at Martin’s funeral with little Bernice on her lap😪52 years later same image different violence one was a gun the other was a knee! Still racism. All I can do is pray constantly asking God lead me to my purpose in this fight and prepare me for the journey. Today is my husband Lenny’s birthday so grateful to have him with us covering us and loving us So blessed. This is so painful. My Aunt Ann gave me rosary beads she lost a child and got a divorce while she was an undercover FBI agent and she said it comforted her and helped her cope every time she couldn’t take the pain. It does work I love her so much! Let’s just pray not judge but show Peace and Love ❤️ | Posted on 06/Jun/2020 10:50:07
