        it is art, him expressing how he sees it. So are we to become the oppressors?

        poem Strange Fruit was written by a white Jewish man Abe Meerpol after seeing photo of a lynching. Art must cross borders.

        Human suffering is human suffering and I'm pretty sure the artist is human.

        Perhaps the protest should be against bad painting from photographs instead.

        His mother chose public open casket viewing; hence the terrible image of murdered son is no one's property, but part of all of us.
