        #NiaWilson Her name needs to be the #1 trending topic in the country & a national manhunt needs to be underway for her killer. She was a kid. The 25-30 y/o white man who murdered her & critically injured her sister walked up to them both & began slashing them w/ a knife.pic.twitter.com/3vZRVqnnbt

        Here is the father of #NiaWilson begging for justice upon learning that she had been targeted then stabbed to death by a random white man on the train. An unthinkable act of violence. Via @KTVUpic.twitter.com/bhWvbdYdXf

        After John Cowell stabbed and murdered #NiaWilson and critically injured her sister, he went to a parking deck next door and changed into these clothes. Stop calling this “random.” This man planned out the murder and targeted two young Black women. He had a plan for this.pic.twitter.com/gUyrr2ZmqJ

        #NiaWilson - above all else - was a teenage girl. She literally just finished high school weeks ago. Sadly, I see already gross attempts to demean her character. Shame on any soul-less person doing this. I reject that. As we all should.pic.twitter.com/ecXLiDBvuM

        Share this clearer image of the murderer John Cowell. They should’ve released this one instead of the grainy version of the other one. He’s 5,9” & weighs nearly 200 pounds. This is now the best, clearest image of him after the murder.pic.twitter.com/UCXqGA7bq0

        When we see horrific police brutality against African Americans, we often say police need more training. But here, while arresting a violent white murderer, they show us they absolutely know how to be calm, cool, & methodical...when they want to. Hard to teach that.pic.twitter.com/IL5wu4z8qw

        Absolutely! I am all for putting in the work. However making people aware and affecting the public consciousness is not to be taken lightly.
