In Georgia, Republican Governor Brian Kemp declared a state of emergency Monday, activating 1,000 National Guard members, following weeks of unrest and a weekend marked by increased gun violence. Five people were killed over the weekend, including 8-year-old girl Secoriea Turner, who was killed Saturday night in Atlanta while riding in a car with her mother. Secoriea Turner was killed close to the Wendy’s where Rayshard Brooks was shot and killed by police last month in the parking lot.
