When I heard about the verdict from the Oscar Grant trial, I was thousands of miles away, outside of the Bay Area. What's jacked up is that the case is probably not televised outside of our Bay Area bubble. There was barely even a mention about this court case on the news in Hawaii. But thanks to technology via texts and twitter, I got the news straight from my sister. Sadly the verdict came to me by no surprise. What outcome did I expect to hear from a system that's built on injustice? Along with so many folks here, the verdict just made me feel more angry about how easy Mesherle is getting off. One picture I saw from the peaceful protests in Oakland was of a person with a sign that read: IT'S NOT INVOLUNTARY AT POINT BLANK. I felt it only best to communicate these sentiments through music. Music is the message. It was no coincidence that upon entering Youth Radio today, I saw the boarded up windows with a Trust Your Struggle Mural of Oscar Grant. This show is in dedication to Oscar Grants and the hundreds of people who experience police brutality. Rest in peace Oscar Grant. 1, 2, 3 F*** the Police.
