Why this petition matters

Started by Farzana Ahmed

Oluwatoyin “Toyin” Salau was a 19 year old activist who attended BLM protests regularly. On June 6, she was sexually assaulted and she tweeted about this on her Twitter which gained some momentum. She tweeted every possible detail that she could to identify her abuser. From this night she went missing for over a week until her body was found dead. She did everything she possibly could.

Toyin was a strong minded, passionate soul who was brave enough to fight against racial injustice and then came out to speak about her abuser. She reached out for help and she is one of the many black women that have been failed by the system. Women, especially our black women need greater protection. Toyin has her whole life ahead of her and she was failed by the system. We demand justice for Toyin. Say her name #JusticeForToyin. She deserved better.
