Activist and Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams has decided to follow in her family’s footsteps.
She and several people were arrested while protesting outside of Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron’s home in Louisville, Kentucky.
The protesters demanded that justice be served for Breonna Taylor, who was killed by police officers during a no-knock warrant search.

The businesswoman was booked for one felony and two misdemeanors that include intimidating a participant in a legal process, second-degree disorderly conduct and third-degree criminal trespassing.
Williams revealed Taylor’s mother, Tamika Palmer, waited for the reality TV star after her arrest.
Williams’s sister, Lauren, shared a video of the arrest with this caption: “She has always been fearless. You mess with her people, you mess with her. She takes the case of #breonnataylor personally, and she’s sacrificing work, time with her loved ones, and her comfort to make sure the offenders are held accountable for their actions.”

This Instagrammer noted: “Is there even any point arresting them at this point? They’ll go to jail, the white civilians will donate and they will walk free again.”
