"Terrorist!" the policeman yelled, and Eyad ran. He thought of his mother while racing away from that gun, like George Floyd called his mama while being crushed by a knee. He ran toward her and away from the Israeli policeman, away from that vile lie shot in his direction. That lie that followed him because he was Palestinian, which was reason alone to stop and arrest somebody in the place he called home. He ran until he could not run any more. Until the bullet caught up with him, threw him to the ground, and stole his final breath.

XREF: Parallels the George Floyd killing, explicitly referenced in the passage, connecting police brutality across contexts.
