Artist's Statement

This picture shows police at the corner of my street because there was a drive by. This art shows inclusion because this is the society I live in where people do dumb things for dumb reasons. This happening brought the neighborhood together because we were all worried that someone was hit by one of the bullets (fortunately, nobody was). Living in an area where it's dangerous for you to go on a walk or just sitting on your porch is annoying because I don't want to live in danger all the time because someone thinks it's okay for to get revenge. I don't want to move because I love living on the street where the neighbors are family friendly. There isn't many neighborhoods like that and luckily I got the chance to live in one like that.
