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.

Qasim Basir @qasimabasirBecause 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”Show this thread1 reply 6 retweets 39 likesShow this thread -

“COPS & KARENS” A personal story. https://twitter.com/qasimabasir/status/1268574711170035714?s=21 …https://twitter.com/qasimabasir/status/1268574711170035714 …

Qasim Basir @qasimabasir"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.Show this thread1 reply 2 retweets 9 likesShow this thread
