How much blood can you take? You seem to crave it more than Audrey II in your Little Shop of Horrors only this ain’t a play. This is America. Gambino tried to warn us, but we thought he was being Childish. #thisisamerica

In the beginning, how eager we were to fight your war not realizing that when slavery was over and we would need you to protect us the most, you’d remove our federal protections to allow the states to decide our fate. And in the absence of those protections came the 3k’s. #reconstruction #noacres #nomules #thesouth #whitesupremacy

America, America

We hear your constitution, but we know your story. Know how you use religion to rule and justify inhumanity. You decided to give Jackson the $20 bill. No wonder why all these years later, and we still weep. Tell me, how can you keep track of all these Trail of Tears? #natives

Don’t tell me to pray while you burn crosses on my lawn, deny me a right live, and continue to oppress me with domestic terrorism. Don’t tell me about God and how much you love him whom you’ve never seen, yet you see me every day and hate me. #religion #legalism

America, America

Stop asking me if I forgive while you assume no accountability for your actions and refuse to uphold justice. You want me to have hope in your grand juries, all while you plot, scheme, shake hands with and accept bribes from your grand wizards to continue systemic racism in high places from behind closed doors. #kkk #whitesupremacy #nothankyou

America, America

Stop telling me lies about how All Lives Matter when you offer federal protections for birds that ain’t even from here; all in the name of profit! My people, my people…in that case I say it’s time for reparations! #canadageese #slavery

My fist and my movement offend you, but I am not here for you! So in the air I raise both my fist and my words as I boldly declare that Black Lives Matter! #powertothepeople #therevolutionwillnotbetelevised

Uncle Ben has all the rice you could ever need, so how could you justify the shooting of a brown Rice at the hands of fear? You hunt down our boys, Till their lives you viciously take. ForEvers it seems you assassinate our men until they have no choice, but to be free at last. #tamirrice #emmetttill #medgarevers #martinlutherkingjr

Oh how you love your hoods. Had that yung boi down in Florida been wearing your favorite one, perhaps he would still be here eating skittles in his freshly painted condo, and minding his own business. #trayvonmartin

Nearly six years ago, I told you “I can’t breathe.” It’s as if my death meant nothing to you because in the distance I can hear another man saying the exact same thing before he commits his spirit into the Lord’s hands. Welcome home, George. #ericgarner

America, America

I know you think I’m a threat, but with my hands cuffed behind my back, my face to the ground, and your knee pressing down tighter and tighter on my neck as I say I can’t breathe, tell me as you’re killing me, who’s the bigger threat; you or me? #georgefloyd

America, America,

This is me. Melanin poppin, rhythm havin, full-lips havin, black man I’m lovin, black boi we’re raising, swagged out me! I ain’t goin nowhere. We ain’t goin nowhere. My weapon is my mind. My weapon is my pen. Ever observant and ever woke. Have you forgotten that the same Savior who died for you, also died for me? #EQUAL
