"I'm thinking about the function of a chorus within a song and how it is something that is often expected and repeated. I'm thinking about the white supremacist tool to condition people to become accustomed to Black death to the point in which it is no longer seen as tragic or remarkable, but instead normal and expected. I'm thinking about what this does to a Black person's psyche and how it may stunt our process of mourning.
