You may have to watch it several times to catch some of the messages but once you do, it’s quite thought provoking.

Gun violence, racial tension and the Charleston shooting are all addressed in the visual as Childish Gambino dances and smiles to distract you from what’s happening right in front of your eyes.
In other words… STAY WOKE!
