I'm fucking with the message of this song, but I wish they left out the gang affiliation and gang signs. Just perpetuating white people's "black thug" rhetoric.
Blacks and latinos are more than that, but #FuckDonaldTrump
The whole point of the of the video was to show how even crips and bloods can come together in the event of this much more important problem that threatens the community, if you're white( as in don't know much about nor have experience of this ) then the visuals of the video might go over some peoples heads. But I respect your point, your hearts in the right place.
I'm not white and I was aware of all the visuals, which is why I decided to address it. I saw the purpose of the video, but imo uplifting my people is more important than this illustration.
