#SayHerName: Kerry Washington takes to Twitter to speak out on #DeborahDanner, the 66 year old woman shot and killed by police

The year of 2016 has been abnormal, as it has been a year of many transitions. Sometimes it takes tragedy to inspire real action, the type that no politician can truly bring. Perhaps there is a bright light in the midst of all the darkness.

Since 2012, there have been a rise in reports of black people being murdered by police and members of other races. This situation has gone haywire since the year of 2016 began. Among the latest victims is a woman named Deborah Danner.

Despite being a 66-year-old woman, Deborah Danner was still gunned down by law enforcement. Since the situation is being spoken on, very much, Kerry Washington is speaking up about matters. In fact, she went on Twitter to rant about the situation, forcing people to pay attention.
