Chance The Rapper Calls Buffalo Supermarket Shooting a “Race Massacre”

This past Saturday, a white gunman went to a grocery store in Buffalo, New York, and opened fire at citizens in a supermarket, resulting in the death of 10 people in a predominantly Black neighbourhood.

After the shooting, the gunman was reportedly apprehended, being taken out in handcuffs by police. Since then, the FBI noted they were investigating the matter as “a hate crime and a case of racially-motivated violent extremism.” Chance The Rapper has given his take on the matter:

Black people (globally) should be in conversation with each other (privately) about the race massacre happened yesterday, and how we should respond.

You don’t need an organization to organize. You don’t need a meeting to meet. We are everywhere all the time. We just need to talk to each other. https://t.co/CM5a4KnMzD
