This reply will make little sense to a random American on Twitter, but it amused me which is what it’s all about, I guess.
The text of the tweet reads:

Henry Nowak was failed in the last moments of his life – and then again by Britain’s disgraceful political class | Jason Okundaye
There are vital lessons to be learned from Nowak’s death. Instead, it has been used to refuel a pervasive lie about ethnic minorities and ‘two-tier’ policing, says Guardian Opinion assistant editor Ja...
