Also ima say this once and not say it again. The police should have found a better way to deal with whatever happened. Shooting this young girl 4 times was not the answer when Dylan Roof was bought Burger King and offered protection after he took 9 lives. FOH #MakhiaBryant

Molly is the epitome of what many Black women have to be in times of crisis. Still have a strong disdain for her but the her saying “she can handle it” is a statement that rings true and false at the same time. #Insecure #InsecureHBO
