Dead for being white.

[StyleCoin]

Iryna Zarutska was 23 years old. She left Ukraine to escape a war, believing she had found safety in the United States. On August 22, she boarded a train in Charlotte as anyone would - just hoping to get home. Minutes later, she was stabbed repeatedly in her seat, her throat slit under the bright light of the fluorescent lights.

What makes her death even more unbearable is how public it was. The passengers were sitting just a few meters away. Some didn't notice, others froze, others looked away. The train kept moving, and Iryna bled to death in full view of everyone. Surrounded by people, she died as if she were alone.

This is very unfortunate, the fact that she would have been safer in a warzone than in some parts of the US. Changes MUST happen
