Michelle Obama has spoken out against the killing of George Floyd, saying she is 'exhausted' by the racist attacks on black people in America, while calling on everyone to do their part in 'rooting it out.'
The former first lady shared an Instagram post on Friday saying she was 'pained' by the recent string of tragedies in the black community and the 'heartbreak that never seems to stop.'
'Right now it's George, Breonna, and Ahmaud. Before that it was Eric [Garner] Sandra [Bland] and Michael [Brown]. It just goes on, and on, and on,' she said.
'Race and racism is a reality that so many of us grow up learning to just deal with. But if we ever hope to move past it, it can't just be on people of color to deal with it.
'It's up to all of us—Black, white, everyone—no matter how well-meaning we think we might be, to do the honest, uncomfortable work of rooting it out.'
Obama urged Americans to start with 'self-examination' and to listen to people who are from different walks of life.
'It ends with justice, compassion, and empathy that manifests in our lives and on our streets. I pray we all have the strength for that journey, just as I pray for the souls and the families of those who were taken from us,' she added.

Watch the video again. Notice that when the ambulance shows up there are no EMTs around. Cops exit the ambulance and check Floyd and place him in the ambulance. Not a single EMT was seen.
FUMO & D.
Every black thug society ‘deals with’ is because the black community for decades has failed to do the uncomfortable work of rooting them out. Mooch.
Good old Chewbacca, the most racist petulant FLOTUS ever...
Those people, without exception, are Democrats.
Your move.
Blacks kill more white people than white people kill blacks. What’s the deal with black racism? Hope black people can have an honest discussion about it.
The ugly tranny weighs in.
Yep. Was just about to post....the Mooch isn’t very concerned about black on black racism and crime.....that the rest of the country is beyond exhausted about
Hey Michelle, how about Paul and Lidia Marino, the elderly couple gunned down by a black man while visiting the grave of their son?
I’m sure you heard about that, it was in the news for about ten minutes.
Any comment, Michelle??
Well hell I’m exhausted by entitled agitators that grew up entitled no matter how much they lie about it not speaking out to the horrendous Black on Black crime let alone the Black racist attacks on Whites.
He is half white, and he’s encouraging more riots and killing. Maybe Mooch could have a word with this Islamic turd.
Michelle is clearly an anti-racist so I have no intention of doing anything she asks.
JoMa
So, again, it’s my fault...damn, thought it was Trump’s fault.
Does she have some sort of PROOF that Mr. Floyd was treated as he was BECAUSE he was Black?
Another Racist hate monger speaks...
Was the Cop a Klan Member? Did he express hatred of Blacks in his daily Life?
There certainly is some serious (purposeful) lack of Intellectual Curiosity going on.
A fifty year democrat controlled area and you have the gall to claim it is everyone else’s problem?
Pound sand woman.
Thank You for reminding me of the cold blooded, evil sniper murder of two innocent, grieving people that reptilian trash like the Obama’s couldn’t care less about.
There was a racist attack on a black person? where Michelle? All I’m seeing are blacks racially attraction white business owners and police- after a policeman subdued a black man who would not comply, and was struggling to resist being put in the back of a squad car
You know what we’re sick of Michelle? People stoking the fires of racism, hoping for continued riots, looting, and burning down of businesses- by falsely accusing others of racism
She thinks Justine had it coming.
Just another Privileged Blonde.
We need to dig up Lincolns grave and ask him why he bothered to save the union and free people who are hell bent on destroying it anyway, egged on by the same democrat party.
“that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain”
The Democrat party has made its main purpose in making sure that the Gettysburg address is nothing more than an insult to all who died there.
Is there anything else you want us to do for you, Mike?
