McAtee also fed the homeless

This photo of David McAtee volunteering to feed homeless families hit me hard. He radiates such joy and by all accounts tried to share that joy with others. Another black life snuffed out by police violence. #BlackLivesMatter https://t.co/Hp81Fnhkax pic.twitter.com/s9ypvLMMHe
