I thought this scene was especially interesting because it speaks to much more than it simply looks like. The cop shooting Kendrick dead with only his fingers symbolizes the dangerous power of oppression to kill a culture and its people even without violence. Such a notion reveals the true injustice and wrong hidden in American society.
I thought this scene spoke volumes as well; I think it also alludes to how stereotypes and perceptions of young black males are influenced by how the police treat them. The police treating them with hostility and distrust often leads to society treating them the same way.
This is a symbolic scene in the music video because itâs referencing that cops donât need guns to kill people, they do it with their bare hands and also with their words. Police brutality is real and it needs to end.
Freedom What does the word freedom mean to you? Being able to do whatever you want, whenever you want. Not having to tell an adult figure where youâre going or what youâre doing. Being able to walk the streets in your own skin. Or maybe just walking the streets holding the hand of your lover regardless of race or gender. Freedom has many different types. It can only be earned to a certain extent. Freedom may never have the same meaning between two people, But two people should be able to experience freedom in the same way. Hopefully one day our world will come to know the true meaning of freedom.
âImmediately following the incident, community members assembled to demand an ex- planation for why this unarmed 18-year-old had been seemingly executed while reportedly holding his hands up in a gesture of surrender, plead- ing âdonât shoot.â

I like how she acknowledges the effort and support aswell as the importance of staying on the topic of the incident itself.
It is good for the community to gather and stand up for wrong doing like this. This really shows others that not everyone in this world is bad and people still have a conscientious for whats wrong.Â
This is where something is messed up in our country. If someone is clearly holding their hands up in surrender and specifically saying âdonât shootâ why on earth would you shoot him? You did your job, you got someone you felt was a threat to surrender to you, put him in cuffs and question about whatever you need to question him about. Why would you shoot a man that is obeying your demands? For all they knew, he couldâve been innocent. Thatâs murder.
You can be anything at all in America, America.

This is supposedly the âAmerican Dreamâ that you can do whatever you want and be whomever you want. However, with the media and the way that people are perceived is this really true? Can you really be anyone you want to be? I feel like the answer is yes, but be ready for all sorts of judgement and probably a little bit of hate if itâs something âout of the ordinaryâ.
We been hurt, been down before
Nigga, when our pride was low
Lookinâ at the world like, âWhere do we go?â
These lyrics speak a lot of truth. I feel like when so many terrible events occur, many people just feel lost and donât know where to turn to in order to find the good in people and the good in the world.
As opposed to someone who might post about Ferguson on Facebook, users on Twitter felt like they were participating in #Ferguson, as they tweeted in real time about the unfolding events, rallied supporters to join various hashtag campaigns (discussed below), and monitored live streams where they could bear witness to the tear gassing and arrests of journalists and protestors.

Here's the thing, the mayor doesn't understand it as a general rule, no one should ever be allowed to say, "there is no history of racial tension here" because that sentence has never been true anywhere on earth.

It would seem that only a small number of white folks are consistently and deeply concerned with the societal costs of racism on Black and Brown bodies, until a certain kind of Black person is killed in the streets. Then, suddenly, racism becomes a crisis that revives the ânational conversation on race.â
