Richard Pryor on the police

I posted this after Ferguson grand jury decision. But I think it worth posting again after the SI grand jury decision.

I learned a lot about his sad life style that I did not know about. But I am glad to have seen him perform early on before he passed. He was brilliant! 😂

How are parents supposed to convince their kids to feel proud of who they are when they have to teach them to assure cops that they don't need to be afraid of them in order to prove their identity? This country is sick.

I hope we are shaking things up enough to make people in power stop and think. It's just ENOUGH!!
