that I would never be the same person. I looked different and I would be different, forever"(Reynolds,303) I thank everyone for coming to the protest, (especially you, dad😉) and I hope that things really will change...

"I brought my hands to my face & slowly peeled the tape & bandage back revealing my nose...I wanted people to see me. See what happened. I wanted people to know that no matter the outcome, no matter if this day ended up as just another protest & Officer Galluzzo got off scot-free

Because of my awful experience, I am able to possibly bring so much change and maybe even change the world a little! 😊

I just saw #rashadisabsentagain "I couldn't believe it. I had become a hashtag. I had become searchable. A trending topic. Another number on someone's chart. But to me, I was still... just me."(Reynolds,198).

So umm I just found out that my dad is EXACTLY like officer Guzzo. When I found out "I just sat there, dumbfounded. My dad, my dad, had paralyzed an unarmed kid, a black kid, and I had no idea. My dad shot a kid." (Reynolds, 234) Idk what to think or feel rn...

(Continued^) "See, in Aaron Douglas' work, there's always this haziness. This ghostliness to everything. But then there's also lots of light. As if light beams just break through certain parts of the painting. I like that." (Reynolds,145) Aaron Douglas is my greatest influence!

After everything I've been through, all I want to do is draw. Its the only outlet I have. This is some of my biggest inspiration. #Aarondouglas Comment down below if my newest art piece deserves a face.😬

@realDonaldTrump Rn I have internal bleeding and stuck in the hospital 4 who knows how long, all because I was trying to buy a bag of chips. Just because Im black doesnt mean I am automatically guilty. Police brutality in America needs to be fixed. #blacklivesmatter #fixursystem

The media is portraying me as two different people!🤬1- the perfect, do-gooder, ROTC, uprising citizen. 2- the shady, unrespectable, baggy pants criminal. Its just two different outfits, but I'm the same guy. Y cant the media see that? #myclothesdontdefineme

[shad.butler @ButlerShad]

I saw the news for the first time today, I "kept watching as the story looped. Sunday asides from being a wack tv show day is also apparently a slow news day. Every few minutes, the footage of me being crushed under the weight of the cop played"(Reynolds,94) It was kinda surreal

[shad.butler @ButlerShad]

Sorry I've been gone 4 so long guys... Its been kinda rough... But at least I learned how to use the bed remote!! #lookatthebrightside #littlevictoriesgetmethroughit

[shad.butler @ButlerShad]
