911 Emergency
I�ve been a victim of theft.
The President stole my son to make him fight this crazy war.
911 Emergency
I think I just saw a murder.
Four men in blue just killed another man just because he was black.
911 Emergency
I�m reporting an assault and battery.
I�ve been beaten down by poverty, the economy and taxes
And they had no permission to touch me.
Help!
Can you hear me�Help!
I need someone to help!!
911 Emergency
I am fighting my own invisibility.
When I�m a good little Negress, I get rewarded and praised,
But when I report racism and sexism, I might end up slain.
911 Emergency
I think I�ve just been drugged.
It makes no sense staying with a man who uses and abuses me,
But I can�t walk away.
911 Emergency
I might have been brainwashed.
I believe Christopher Columbus discovered America.
But if that�s true, how did the Native Americans get here?
How the hell did I get here?
How did we get here?
Help!
I need to get out of this mess.
Help!
I don�t think I can take no more.
Help!
I see too much pain, too much shame,
too much destruction�not enough loving.
Help!
911 Emergency
I�m homeless. I�m jobless. I�m sick.
I�m poor. I have no education. I speak no English.
I have no place to go.
Help!
Can�t you do something for me?!
I am America.
