The family of #KeenanAnderson continues to grieve and fight after their loved one was murdered after LAPD tasered him 6 times in about 40 seconds. Keenan was seeking help after an auto accident and it ended in his death. This is unacceptable. Keenan was a beloved father, teacher, mentor, brother, cousin, and fiancé. Let’s honor his life with tangible action- let us not only say his name, but move our feet. This is one small, quick action that is so incredibly important. Sign the petition to support the demands of his family and BLMLA, go to tinyurl.com/SignForKeenan. In the wake of this tragedy, this is the very least that can be done and we will work to ensure it. #BlackLivesMatter
