The brothers of Renee Good, the American woman shot and killed by ice in Minneapolis, Minnesota, spoke to lawmakers on Capitol Hill Tuesday.
The brothers told those gathered that the most important thing they could do was to let the panel and the world know who their sister was.
"When she walked in a room, things felt lighter, even on cloudy days," Good's brother Brent Ganger said. "Renee had a way of showing up in the world made you believe things were going to be ok. Not because she ignored the hardship, but because she chose optimism anyway. She chose to look for what was good, what was possible and what was worth loving."
Also at the forum was Marimar Martinez, who was shot 5 times by a Border Patrol in Chicago, and Aliya Rahman, who was dragged out of a car by ICE in Minneapolis while she was on her way to a medical appointment.
