S/O: On 17 July rappers Snoop Dogg and
The Game lead a peace rally in Los Angeles,
that called on men a part of rival gangs and
all races to come together, calling for peace

mistreatment of black men could mean a
potential situation escalates quickly.
Racism stems from a feeling of
superiority, hate. It is ugly. In at least the
incident of Castile, I’m confident in saying
that officer overreacted out of fear. Probably a fear that
stems from the widely perceived notion that black men
glamorize violence and are more aggressive and tend to
