    The video of Philando Castile's shooting echoed the experience of seeing the gruesome photos of Emmett Tillhttp://nyer.cm/uCZDwN9

        I'm sorry, this piece just really makes me think how limited a conversation occurs around these objects. I adore the New Yorker.

        I tether the participatory culture of consuming that video to people touring plantations, sites of agony, that get no reverence.

        It also happens to make the onus of empathy (the goal of circulating such violence) the duty of victims who then act as recorders

        That act of circulation made Emmett Till into an immortal symbol that various entities employ as spectacle to increase revenue.

        Circulating Till's corpse allowed its consumption by those who might reflect, empathize, etc., while feeding those who would not.

        What I have a problem with though is where is the conversation about how black suffering exists as commodity in this culture.

        I mean that the circulation of that video, or any object of serious violence has a way accruing attention=wealth.

        I appreciate this piece because it generates a conversation of a continuum that exists between these black victims. Thank you.
