Ice Cube has been incredibly active on Twitter since George Floyd died in Minneapolis, Minnesota, last month while in police custody.
The rapper-turned-actor has been tweeting and retweeting messages about racism, police brutality, Donald Trump, and the nationwide protests that began after Floyd’s death.
Cube also shared a video of Michael O’Meara, who’s the president of New York state’s group of Police Benevolent Associations.
In a news conference on Tuesday, O’Meara said the media, legislators, and others have been trying to “shame” police officers since Floyd died, and officers are being treated like “animals and thugs.”
Cube also said that Black people shouldn’t only be excluded from paying yearly taxes, but the agencies who’ve mistreated citizens should pay fines, and not just police departments.
