Could of been me.
STILL MORE NAMES.
First, they shackled our bodies. Then, they shackled our minds. We are not free. That’s why when we run they still shoot. In some cases just laying on the ground screaming for your life is enough for them to finish you. The people who are supposed to protect and serve us (police) are the same people who are killing us. With that being said, these people (police) are still not the problem. The problem is the system that’s in place allowing them to oppress us. The main component of this system is mind manipulation. One way our minds are being manipulated is the way they make us fear each other. Women are scared to walk down street at night, young black men have to keep a fireman close in case they run into an “Opp” and the elderly don’t even bother going outside because of what they see on the news everyday. It enrages me having to hear my mother tell me her bad experience on her train ride home from work. It makes me want to be the villain so bad. That’s when I remind myself of “The System” that is trying to destroy me. The system that has destroyed so many of my brothers and sisters. Some of their names are listed in my painting below.
