        This is my Sundance Film about two people meeting on election nt 2016. @MeaganGood & @OmariHardwick are the leads and they express with depth & truth experiences of being black in America while going after what you believe in.

        My Bro @SultanReflects was tear gassed, shot with a rubber bullet and arrested yesterday after trying to mediate between police & protesters in Santa Monica. I spoke to him of FB live today about his harrowing account on the front lines. Here's the link:https://www.facebook.com/qasimbasir/videos/10105556090457238/?d=n …

        Because this all feels like a bad movie, I wrote a short screenplay version of @realDonaldTrump’s Church photo op stunt yesterday. This story is based on true events. Some dialogue & characters are fictional (I wish it all was). I’ll call it “SHOOT THE PEOPLE TO GET THE SHOT”

        "COPS & KAREN'S". This is my personal story. A bit traumatic to dig up, but I have to speak. I do not tell these stories for sympathy. I've managed to turn a lot of pain into art. But people need to know how common this stuff really is. And none of this was on camera.

        New Tonight: Disturbing video from @WBFO in Buffalo, NY shows an elderly man walk up to police in riot gear. An officer shoves the man...he falls backwards, hits his head...starts bleeding immediately...motionless. Why did this happen @BPDAlerts ? pic.twitter.com/qbTvXAAPLH

        This too happened. Earlier this month during the protests, people armed while being addressed by the Police and have got their fingers on the trigger. How is this the America we live in?pic.twitter.com/KTseLmEFo5
