Marshawn McCarrel: Black Lives Matter Activist Dies At ‘Age 23’

Marshawn McCarrel, a prominent Black Lives Matter activist, died Monday outside of the Ohio statehouse.

“My demons won today. I’m sorry,” MarShawn McCarrel allegedly posted on his Facebook page hours before killing himself.

His last tweet read, “Let the record show that I pissed on the state house before I left.”

Authorities say the 23-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene.

In addition to his work as a Black Lives Matter activist, McCarrel worked with mentorship programs for youth and also launched a nonprofit group aimed at getting meals to the homeless.

“All everyone needs is love,” he told 614 Columbus in 2014 while speaking about the Feed the Streets nonprofit. “That’s a human being.

That’s a pulse. We’re feeding everyone, we’re sending the message — today I got you; tomorrow, I could be right there.”

YouTube user Adam Little captured McCarrel reciting poetry under the name “MC Carrel” in 2013.
