We can have video from a hovering news chopper of a gang of
police beating a man to the ground. We can have video of a gang of police
choking a man to death. We can have video of police killing people for holding
toy guns in a store that sells toy guns. We can have video of police officers
abusing their authority every day of the week.
We can have candlelight vigils. We can have spiritual
marches and protests. We can scream in the face of injustice…but all injustice
does is get bored and goes to play somewhere else.
We will take away injustice’s playgrounds. We will take away
its toys. There will be no more state-condoned executions of unarmed black
boys.
