There is so much to learn here, especially by us "older folks"

If you have yet to see Childish Gambino’s powerful video for his new single, This is America, you need to NOW.

In the era of #BlackLivesMatter, there is an ongoing major discussion about how Black Americans are treated and represented in modern day America. Along with Kendrick Lamar and Beyoncé, Gambino is joining a long list of artists who are using their art to create a social commentary.
