I will know the difference when I start seeing these policemen shoot white boys in the back—because they have keys in their hands that look like guns. Then when you ask me that question, I’ll say: ‘We’ve got there.’ If they can do something that outrageous and talk to some white parents and say, ‘Oh! Excuse me. I thought it was a gun.’ And when that makes sense, then we’re in good shape. -
