Pink Siifu - NEGRO [Independent] 2020 song FK

Black artists have a long history of using the American flag in album art—Sly and the Family Stone, Ice Cube, OutKast—sparking conversation on the dire position of black people in the United States. In May of 2020, this conversation erupted in full force as the world watched in horror as a police officer knelt on a Black man's neck for eight minutes and 46 seconds, killing him in broad daylight. George Floyd's murder, along with Breonna Taylor's, ignited protests in every major city in the US and many around the world, defined by police brutality, bold political action, and dialog at every level.
