EXCLUSIVE: Daunte Wright’s father says he “can’t accept” that a police officer fatally shot his 20-year-old son by accident: “I lost my son. He is never coming back. I can’t accept that. A mistake? That doesn’t even sound right.” gma.abc/2Q21m1l

A year and a half ago I was Yang Gang banging 💪🏽! With the rise of anti-Asian racism happening across America, was I naive to imagine an Asian American could one day be POTUS? #StopAsianHate #StopAsianHateCrimes #asianamerican #filipino #pinoy #ubi – at Cherryland, CA

You can’t please everybody. Just got to do the work that you do despite people misunderstanding your mission and vision. In the end, my social justice work and public service is something I do within my own private contentment. #filmmaker #createwithpurpose #intersectionality – at Cherryland, CA
