If you know me, you know how I feel about my nephews and my sister for raising them. A while back my second oldest nephew Xavier Smooth Molina expressed anger, hurt, and disbelief about the Michael Brown murder. He's taken that emotion and put it into his drumming, trumpet playing, and vocals (the burst of emotion towards the end of the song) on this beautiful outpouring of creative critical thinking with the Dominic Minix Quartet. In the video, they re-enact the outrage and the killing... it is very powerful. Please share this, especially now as the decision on whether to charge the officer looms. This is healthy, thoughtful, beautiful democracy at work.
The refrain, "Numb me now beneath the noise" expresses beautifully how these youngsters refuse to go numb, instead turning the madness into music.
