a. khristin brown - hold your hands up lyrics

Loading...

i was overwhelmed with unarmed boys dying in the news. i became more aware that it could happen to anyone, even me. trayvon martin and micheal brown story shocked me because of how they died and how it happened at their age being so young high school students. the people involved‚ victims of families or the victims themselves who are apart of the movement came forward to speak in behalf to those who couldn’t

i could not honestly give a speech to blame the conditions poor people live in as a source of anger used to blame for their actions. i feel it is wrong that the police have the power to k!ll at will or in danger. the fifth commandment says thy shall not k!ll. what i witnessed on the news‚ is wrong to murder someone who appears innocent and isn’t a threat. again it’s wrong to retaliate and k!ll the police. they should be held accountable for their actions. the police should be taught more sensitive and empathy sk!lls towards black people. the police should be aware of the conditions of society and that blacks are humans who have rights and should be treated as equal
trayvon martin was walking home while talking on his cell. he had bought a bag of skittles from the store. a night watchman was suspicious and approached him. trayvon fought back and was shot

micheal brown was stopped by police for stealing. when asked to put his hands up he did and was shot by the police several times

eric garner was apprehended by the police for illegally selling cigarettes outside a store. eric was placed in a head lock and died

there was a college instructor pulled over‚ police was suspicious, asked to step out of her car and was arrested. she later died in prison cell

after the death of trayvon martin, people watched the trial on national news that told the tragic story of what lead up to his death. the night watchman got acquitted. the micheal green story was broadcast by the media with the details of his death. micheal was shot over ten times. both kids were young teenagers in high school. again no one was held responsible for what happened. the community began protesting against police brutality. there were community riots‚ community forums, social groups formed in unified protest with civil rights leaders, stars and athletes. someone started a hashtag on twitter #blacklivesmatter that would allow people to report live on twitter unlawful police brutality. it went viral with enough responses. the people’s response was to show through the media that police brutality was a big problem amongst black people mistreated by the police. black lives matter became a young group movement of college students to say that k!lling innocent blacks is a epidemic amongst policemen that is wrong and it needs to change

there are ways you can prevent a bad outcome when confronted by the police. when the police pull you over‚ you stop your car, place your hands in view on the dash board. be nice to the police. don’t argue with the police. hold your hands up in eyes view when asked by the police. answer their questions. ask the police for permission before reaching for your purse, wallet and tag insurance. don’t fight the police. don’t run from the police. the police is trained to act that way

a dream becomes a nightmare
poem written by angela khristin brown

young beautiful black boy
gifted black boy
innocent black boy

when does race become a crime?

at the wrong time
at the wrong place
at the mercy of god

maybe i identify their death as a senseless act
as victims of retribution and misfortune
murdered by the police
like chains clasping at his feat
his death plea
an insurrection into haven
where freedom ain’t so free

where poverty covets needs
where hustling quenches thirst
where addiction covets desire

the root of our problem is where
we fail to understand
the black man carries his weight
like dog tags
because he becomes accountable
for his own actions

it is disappointing to see
black men carry torches

where nooses covets want
where lashes covets thirst
where shackles covets hunger

and silence becomes
our greatest misfortune
because we fail to raise our boys
to become men due to lack of confidence
in our system that failed us
