Can you imagine the outrage from #FoxNews if a minority were to call the police on a couple of white kids with a lemonade stand!?!?

Created this piece after being inspired by a digital concept from one of my favorite artists (@thatsodope) This theme explores the absurdity of “concerned” citizens calling the police on minorities for no reason. From #bbqbecky to #permitpatty we’re living in a time when just going about your day as a minority isn’t safe. When I saw that this disturbing trend started to affect children out selling water or cutting the grass, I knew that I had to create something to speak to the insanity of it all. .
