“This is real. Me being an ex-felon, being part of mass incarceration, being attacked and beat by the police. This is very much real for me. I’ve been homeless, I’m a father, a student and a vet. My people are the blood, sweat and tears, and the backbone of this country. Where nothing exists here today if it were not for black people. People of color have always been ostracized and abused in this place that they call the great United States. Fuck the United States. The United States is full of shit. They got their priorities fucked up. We got a clown for a president. And police are killing our people at random, not just our youth but our elderly too. Enough is enough. How do you kill a man when he’s telling you he can’t breathe? You keep your foot on his neck even after he done stopped breathing, you still got your foot on his neck. Something has to end. So until they give us what we ask for, we’re here, we’re not going nowhere.” - Kannon
