A Call to Bear Witness that Justice Be Served

The NYPD's murder of Sean Bell and attempted murders of Trent Benefield and Joseph Guzman are NOT isolated or random events. They represent the continued racial profiling of communities of color by the police and the lack of accountability for police misconduct and abuse.

"Unheard Voices"

"Unheard Voices" is our latest project that continues to talk about police brutality and the many lives stolen at the hands of law enforcement agents and border patrol. "Unheard Voices" opens up talking about the police killing of Sean Bell in Jamaica, Queens on November 26, 2006 and then moves on talking about Timur Person, a 19 year old that was killed in the Bronx two weeks after the Bell shooting.

The beats and lyrics are original pieces made by Gustavo a.k.a Ginsumera that talk about police brutality and how it affects minorities.

This piece is very emotional considering the fact that we have witnessed such brutality by police officers in our communities!
