D.C. resident Nestride Yumga, along with fellow community members, delivered food to local police officers on Saturday in a show of support for officers, rejecting the anti-cop narrative touted by Black Lives Matter activists.
Yumga, an American citizen originally from Africa, said she delivered food to officers because “our police department needs us now more than ever.”
“These are brave men and women who took the oath, they took the badge to serve the community and they’re doing just that,” she told Breitbart News.
“These are heroes. When we call them at three in the morning, they show up. … They need our help and our support now more than ever,” she continued, noting that officers routinely “save lives” and stressing that “our communities will suffer the most without the police.”
Yumga emphasized that the problem is violence and advocated for “evidence-based strategies to contain the violence.”

I had a customer the other day from Nigeria.
He does not understand American blacks at all, he feels lucky to have gotten here and blessed by the opportunities afforded.
It was probably tainted with poison. Here, have a cookie officer....
That was a nasty thing to say...
I saw a video of this same lady a few weeks ago taking on BLM and other anti-police agitators at one of their rallies! Those idiots couldn’t form a cogent argument against her! She is amazing!!
Absolutely. Most Africans are not fans of African-Americans. The ones I have spoken with do not even consider them African as they are so far removed from the Continent.

Nope. Probably not.
Here’s this courageous and intelligent lady a few weeks ago at a BLM Rally:
Your comment was low IQ.
Watch the woman speak.
What do you expect? You live in a nasty world. Being perfectly honest, if I were a cop and hadn’t eaten in 2 days and someone offered me food in this environment, I’d tell them, no thanks, I’m not hungry.
Quite a video - she’s a brave gal.
I was a student at New Jersey Institute of Technology (formerly Newark College of Engineering) in the seventies, located in the Central Ward of Newark. There were a number of Nigerian and Kenyan students there who wanted nothing to do with the urban black culture.
No problem. Plenty of white privilege kids waiting to make amends for enslaving them. Or something.
I know several Nigerian business owners here. Very successful, resourceful, smart…and proud to be in the US.
nowadays it would make you more skeptical and cautious if you didn’t know the person.
I spent three years in Sierra Leone, and every one of their citizens would have happily traded places with an “African-American” and would have been a huge improvement.
They worked hard, education, small businesses, etc., and would have worked even harder if they had the chance.
At this point, I don’t even trust my neighbors or anyone else for that matter. It’s why when smart cops go into an establishment and are offered free coffee, piece of pie or whatever, they decline and pay for it themselves.
