Heather aka Hurricane became the queen of the streets after her father was killed. She had everything a street bitch would want… cars, money, clothing, looks, and to top shit off the best plug to the dope game in the world; yet all she really wanted was the love her father used to give.
Have you ever been in love? No? Hurricane hadn’t either up until her father’s death. She thought she’d met the man of her dreams. She married him, and they even worked together side-by-side in the streets. Yeah he did normal nigga shit - lie, and cheat, but that’s what men do. Her father schooled her on that when she was young. He would say if you leave a nigga because he cheats, you ain’t gonna ever have a man. He told her to only leave a nigga if he’s broke. Street bitches don’t need love, they need money. That was her daddy’s motto.

I Can't Breathe                                           Author: Aleja Bennett

Here is a reason behind this bold letter book which you will have to indulge on the inside of. If law enforcement can boldly, continuously kill unarmed black men and teens then why shouldn't these racist deaths be typed in the bold center fold of these crimes.

Being a plus size woman as Eric was a plus size man gave the cops an excuse that his size killed him. Do you mean to imply that if I as a black over weight woman, was to be arrested, would my weight be a reason to kill me as well?

This tragic story has the world wondering about the reasons to kill a black unarmed teen, father, son, husband and grandfather. As you look at the video and in the eyes of several law enforcement men and women, what did you see?

Did anyone see love, concern, safety, gentleness to Garner's head that just was left to hang low. I Can't Breathe was stated to be common, popular words from many that are arrested. I Can't Breathe was ignored 11 times.

I Can't Breathe became words that no one cared to hear. The last words, I Can't Breathe took away a husband, friend, father, son, giver, care giver, grandfather.

If Garner was so unhealthy, then how come he didn't demise when he had just previously broken up a fight? How come Eric didn't catch an asthma attack after what he did? Many people enjoy watching a good fight which can lead to death.

Before he was killed Eric Garner stopped a fight and remained alive. Being big, tall and black with no knife, gun or any type of weapon caused the NYPD to walk away with another black crime.
