Shoot Films not People - Where film making and activism meet. An apparel brand with a social cause.
I am a filmmaker, writer, and activist against police brutality. The name, Shoot Films Not People came from the meshing of these two worlds.

It's Merch Tuesday and I am exploring new tee concepts.
People in poli-tricks have been tossing around the "Stay Woke" term nowadays, but what does it really mean??? Not that ๐
Is this shirt a ๐๐พ or a ๐๐พ? Let me know.

Chicago is my hometown and although I loved it as a kid, it has some parts I wish I could change.

A person shot in Chicago is more likely to die from it today than they would have been 13 years ago, a Trace analysis found.
In 2010, of every 100 people who were shot, 13 died; by 2023, 19 succumbed to their wounds. The likelihood of dying after being shot is significantly higher in some neighborhoods, especially Black and brown communities in the cityโs South and West Sides.
About a dozen violence prevention workers and residents told The Trace that access to deadlier fi****ms has created more dangerous situations, especially with more young people carrying guns for protection. Edwin Galletti, VP of violence intervention and prevention services at , wondered further about the root causes of the trend.
โWhy is it easier to get access to a gun than it is to healthcare?โ he asked. โWhy is it easier to get a weapon and modify it than it is for me to get a job?โ

Thie is a quote I have always loved. Many people have shared it so I honestly don't know who the originator is. So basically, wars will continue until one side decides to make it stop by a peaceful action.
What are you willing to do for peace?

"War in the East. War in the west. War up north. War down south. Everywhere is war." - Bob Marley
It's art Mondays. I have always loved and appreciated many forms of art, especially film because art has the power to make people think about issues that affect us in a different way.
How does this piece speak to you?
