What they saw. What we are.


They saw what they wanted. Fists in the air, Panthers in the Ghetto, Invaders in the schools. They denied what we are: Men. Women. Children. People wanting freedom. People striving for equality. People deserving Life, Liberty, and Property. All of which they denied us. Now we demand, Demand the right to live, To live Free.
