Thousands of Americans
Dead
at the hands of police officers.
Look at the masses,
all races,
all religions.
You've unleashed a torrent
long-simmering tensions.
What a sea of people
in the capitol on a chilly December day.
You've electrified a larger audience,
Thousands of American citizens
who can't breathe
in their own communities.
"This is an American march."
a history making moment.
He traced his small hand on his poster
and wrote
"Don't shoot me."
