| 0:21.9 | Panala we've been connecting a verse from the Quran to lessons for us and |
| 0:26.2 | And I know that many of us have been following the news that came out of Minnesota where we had a |
| 0:35.4 | sigh of relief where the officer who murdered George Floyd was actually charged, rightfully so, |
| 0:43.2 | with murder. And then at the same time, within that same time period, you have news that comes out of |
| 0:51.6 | Columbus, Ohio, a 15-year-old girl, Makiya Bryant, who was shot four times to death by an officer |
| 0:58.1 | when she called the police actually to help her, and instead was murdered herself. And it's like |

| 2:01.2 | father, Jordan Edwards, who was 15 years old and shot in his car by officer Roy Oliver, |
| 2:07.4 | who was a Iraq war veteran. And a lot knows if he shot people in Iraq too, that never had a trial |
| 2:14.0 | in this life. And I remember when when Jordan Edwards, when that trial played out and the sentencing |
| 2:19.8 | of Roy Oliver was 15 years, 15 years for a 15 year old boy that was innocently killed, literally |
