My love for Minnesota is so deep. I have always proudly shared that I am a Minnesotan. As I watch what is playing out in my home state, it literally feels like my heart is ripping out of my chest.

Minnesota friends, we’re not looking away. We’re listening. Watching. Crying. Calling out to the Lord. We see the injustice. It’s not okay. I’m so sorry.

Light is coming. It’s always darkest before the dawn. Hold on to hope.
