In this edition of #thedailydoug, I'm listening to and watching the video of This is America by Childish Gambino. Gambino is the alias/stage name of Donald Glover, and the song/video was published in May of 2019. I had read about some of the content of this provocative piece of art, but I had never seen it before. It's graphic and powerful but so smart...and it really grabbed my attention. As we close in on the end of Black History Month, I'm really humbled to present my reaction and thoughts to this powerful bit of social commentary.
