The vicious murder of yet another black life has left me reeling once again. “I can’t breathe”…..AGAIN. Rest In Power George Floyd. 1946 – 2020. My pen was inspired to express the pain of another black life violently taken from our midst. The title of this piece, “That Knee” (Copyright 2020 – All Rights Reserved).

Love this pouring out from the soul to reach the larger meaning! Eloquent expression of sadness, disappointment and anger. Not again, and never again!

Yes. Thank you for watching the video. There is so much systemic injustice on display in the way he died.

Yes indeed. But not in vain, a revolution has begun and changes will come soon, as long as people aren’t distracted from the message, at least some of their core demands will be met! I’m so proud of the voices of the youth. Let these be the sounds of sincerity and not quarantine boredom and social uncertainty alone that we see. Diverse voices harmoniously seeking change is a message that can’t be ignored!
