Rihanna Laments ‘Blood Curdling Agony’ of George Floyd’s Death
After taking a break from social media, Rihanna returned with a message about the death of George Floyd. “For the last few days, the magnitude of devastation, anger, sadness I’ve felt has been overwhelming to say the least! Watching my people get murdered and lynched day after day pushed me to a heavy place in my heart,” wrote the singer.
“To the point of staying away from socials, just to avoid hearing the blood-curdling agony in George Floyd’s voice again, begging over and over for his life!!!” Rihanna was referring to the image of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, kneeling on Floyd’s neck.
“The look of enticement, the pure joy, and climax on the face of this bigot, murderer, thug, pig, bum, Derek Chauvin, haunts me!! I can’t shake this,” Rihanna wrote.
“I can’t get over an ambulance pulling up to an arrest, a paramedic checking a pulse without removing the very thing that’s hindering it! Is this that fucking normal??? If intentional MURDER is the fit consequence for ‘drugs’ or “resisting arrest”….then what’s the fit consequence for MURDER???!” Rihanna wrote.
