The Dreams Deferred

Today we honor those black men, women, and children who were killed by police officers. There are over 300 pictures, and it is truly sad to see that these are only a small fraction of all those who were killed over the years. Regrettably, since making this video there have been more that need to be added. Join us and take a look at the lives that were taken too soon. 

In Today’s podcast, we include the following pieces:
-Harlem by Langston Hughes
-A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansburry
-The Revolution will not be Televised by Gil Scott-Heron
-Ode to the Only Black Kid in Class by Clint Smith
-Rachel by Angelina Weld Grimke
-One by Sage Hasson

Also, I would like to say thank you very much to my coworkers Ed and Jessica for reading the different parts. I couldn’t have done this without you both. Thank you to all those who pitched in for the final poem as well. I think this video is absolutely necessary and I appreciate all of you for helping.

If anybody is interested in the video portion of this or wants to use the pictures for another project, feel free to contact me directly. It would be great if everybody can see not just the names of those killed but also their pictures faces.

NOTE:I do not own “The Revolution will not be Televised” by Gil Scott-Heron. This is a non-profit video, so please support the official release. 

You're all loved.
