Young Dueces poem stems from the constant injustices against Black men and women in the United States.
In Milwaukee, WI, a Black male by the name of Jay Anderson, was also shot and killed by the police while sleeping in his own car at night.
This, just like many others, was unlawful, unnecessary and down right wrong. The officer involved was not convicted, the video/audio was not released to the public, and the official statement is “The officer feared for his life.”
In light of that and everything else that is going on, a Milwaukee emcee, Young Dueces, took to his pen to express his frustration, thoughts & concerns in a video entitled “FIGHT!” #Justice4Jay
