Tune in here to this Monday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show from the East/West Boulevard Light Rail station to talk about the vigil to honor the life of Iryna Zarutska.
Jensen emphasizes that this memorial is not a political event, instead it's a way for the community to honor Zarutska's life and the legacy she ultimately leaves behind. He goes on to paint a visual of what the scene at the East/West Boulevard station, just outside of the tracks, looks like.
He emphasizes the freshly-laid flowers given by the community to honor Zarutska, including tons of daisies and sunflowers. In addition to flowers, there were pictures and paintings of Zarutska, as well as hand-written notes that accompanied them. Jensen reads some of the notes, most of which state phrases such as "angel", "you are not alone" and "you will remain in our hearts forever".
Jensen then shares an interview he was able to have with North Carolina congressman Mark Harris. This conversation was important, since the House Judiciary Committee will be in Charlotte to talk about recent crime and violence that has been occurring in the city. In the interview, Harris acknowledges that the recent violent situations in Charlotte have caught the attention of The White House, and that national attention is what's bring the House Judiciary Committee to the Queen City. He believes that the Committee's purpose will be to ask questions of Charlotte leaders in order to prevent situations, like the one with Iryna Zarutska, from happening in the future.
