Nigga, and we hate po-po
Wanna kill us dead in the street fo sho'
Kendrick Lamar (via mwin8)
This line is extremely interesting because at the start of the song, the police is whats carrying the car their in. The fact that this is saying they kill African Americans dead is so true, but makes me question if our community is held on the shoulders of police brutality, or injustice. The song is supporting this, but yet saying it’ll be okay.

This is a very specific part of Kendrick Lamar’s song because even though his representation is showing some scenes where there’s police brutality, and people being shot. He’s also saying like you want this and that, well we’ll be alright because we can have anything.
What you want? A house, you a car, forty acres and a mule, piano or guitar anything?

You can be anything at all in America, America.
“American Oxygen,” Rihanna
(via ctimbs5)
This particular part of the song was extremely important because though we had a horrible representation in the video. We still and strive to be what we want in light of America. Emphasizing the fact that yeah, this and this happened, but we can still do what we desire.

Within this context, social media participation becomes
a key site from which to contest mainstream media
silences and the long history of state-sanctioned violence
against racialized populations.

The levels of violence against a
people whose ancestors were subjected to the largest forced migration in
human history—in the belly of intercontinental slave ships—is shameful
beyond words.

Do you feel hurt because its the "all black people look the same" moment, or because you are being confused with another after being so close to this other?

This as we know the first official clip of the actual movie, and its very important to relate to one of the main black characters. For someone who has never seen this film, and just watching it, the fact that a black individual is abducted is VERY important because we see the unwillingness of how they’re essentially being taken.
