From what I've been told so far, right, from what police know, from from speaking to the students who were with her.
It seems she might have that as they were just out, people go out to the beach all the time, right?
And they go out on the pier, they walk around so that the kids were out doing normal things people do in the neighborhood.
And it sounds like this might have been a wrong place, wrong time running into a person who had a gun.
They might have startled this person at the end of the pier unintentionally.
But that's all we know.
From what I've been told, what police investigation has turned up so far, what they've been able to share with me and with Loyola University, we don't believe there is cause for broader community concern.
Holocaust Remembrance Day and the visits that I've gone and all the efforts for lifting up the stories of the survivors and of the people who didn't survive I think are core to the American experience that I have as well because as a black American we are always looking to our past
to center ourselves in the fights that we also still face.
We have a president in this land that is demonizing people that don't look like him.
We've seen that before.
And right now, we have ethnic cleansing, xenophobia, anti-blackness, anti-poverty happening and being carried out
by our government.
They are acting against us.
They are stealing our people.
They are kidnapping them and they are trampling our rights.
And what's next?
Gulf of America.
That's the last thing I kept up with.
I haven't heard.
