There are some interesting factors here that no one has wanted to speak about...
America doesn't really want police officers anymore, it wants soldiers. And those soldiers aren't being paid to protect the citizens they live among. We've been taught to obey everything told to us by those in authoritative positions without question, but the fear of consequence has always been the tool to ensure compliance. Questions that arise in defiance are often met with dismissal, violence and arrest. We've been made afraid to stand up for what we believe in if that stand doesn't fall in line with what we've been programmed to understand as truth.
in 2014, you don't have to be a minority to feel trapped in your own country, state, city or home because almost everything that's unfolding is affecting us all. The fear of pain, imprisonment and death is as real as anything in today's emotionally charged socioeconomic systems but no longer is proof of crime required to receive punishment. Our country belongs to all of us, meanwhile many of us have fallen victim to the perception of what is felt that we deserve.

It's starting to look like a battlefield out here...when it doesn't look like a massacre. The war is first won in the mind, then won in tactic....let the force be strong within you! Act accordingly. They won't kill us all.
When the collective force is greater...we overcome, we overtake, we rebuild.

There are witty principalities out there that are really good at studying us. They don't know anything more than what we've practiced and said in life. They know what we watch, what we listen to, what we eat and how often. They know if we cry when something scares us or how we, if we, choose a method of escape to deal with crisis.
There are so many factors in our everyday lives that tell us how to be, what's "okay" and after whom we should model our lives. Our perception of whether or not we matter in our society has inadvertently made a daily case for our own judgement, based on the evidence of how well or poorly we follow these models or expectations of pop culture and government. It should be second nature for our communities and families to address mistaken mentalities of entitlement that ask us to take from someone else to gain, as opposed to earning something to keep and call our own. Our mothers and leaders should be present enough to notice our young ones, whom we seek to empower and nurture, when they seem down or dissatisfied. That's taking account of your efforts to make sure they yielded what you intended for them to yield! Furthermore, there should definitely be some fathers and men to lead in the system of discipline and covering in our communities to where a poser doesn't even feel comfortable enough to steal for fear of a butt-whoopin'!
To keep a deep point concise, We're telling you now, it's not okay to do wrong. It's not okay to do wrong and attempt to conceal some part of the truth, hoping it'll save you from a consequence. The only reason anyone should be salvaged from paying an appropriate consequence is because someone or some people collectively decided to show mercy. This point is to not unfairly condemn the average wrongdoer, because truth be told we all do wrong. But we all should be prepared to PAY THE CONSEQUENCE of our actions. This point is definitely to convict those in places of power and influence to refrain from teaching the rest of the world that it's cool to enslave groups of people according to their race or class or demographic, murder them and pay off people connected to them with hush money. It's not cool. We won't stand for it.
Black lives matter, just as much as any other life present on this earth! Individuals should be held accountable for their actions and judged only by their words and deeds. If you are interested in inspiring change, BE THE CHANGE you wish to see. Your everyday actions, your decisions to speak for or against someone or something, how you allow and disallow things in your life and the lives around you...these things are how you BE. Regardless of past evidence and facts of happenings, how you choose to BE is one of the only things that's real out here, and really that decision can change every moment.
If you don't like what you're seeing, make a consistent change in how you are being...and message us to come through and document it!
We're spreading our message across the nations to unify with like minds, to share how we BE and demand that evil principalities and powers that be are known for the punks they are and come to TRUTH to account for their bad behavior.
Stay the course...until the end.

We, all of us, do this for us. Speak for those who can't speak for themselves. Honor the truth. Demand Justice!
How better to express how this feels...then through your art?
Let us state and relate.
