SAY HER NAME: RENEE NICOLE GOOD

Remember back a few years ago when an undocumented alien murdered a cute young white woman named Laken Riley? And remember how Congressional Republicans responded by passing a bill entitled "The Laken Riley Act?" And remember how, when President Biden delivered his State of the Union message, Marjorie Taylor Greene interrupted her by shouting the young woman's name then shouting "Say her name."?

Remember that?

So -- will Trump get the same treatment from Democrats when (if) he delivers a SOTU address?

Maybe we need a Renee Nicole Good Act that disbands ICE.

woman undermines that effort. It's definitely important to highlight state violence no matter who the victim is, but "say her name" is generally specifically a reference to Black women.

I understand the OP's intent is really good . . . but if she had been a Black woman - no one would know her name.

Thank you for seeing us - and standing up for us.
