this is why we say black lives matter because people need reminding that POC are humans too.

While, I believe Michelangelo's Pietà played a big part in the overall inspiration for these series, this one is aesthetically similar too. And I like that. It surely does evoke many questions.

I feel your pain...

Oh, my heart! 💕😥

This is heartbreaking...no mother should have to fear for child's life based on solely the colour of their skin.

This is so sad. No mother should have to fear for her son's life because fo their skin.

that target sign definitely adds to the image

Reminds me of Michelangelo's Pieta in the Vatican. http://www.italianrenaissance.org/michelangelos-pieta/

i bet that's hard. taking care of a baby IN A CURSED YEAR.

Poignant, considering the backdrop (a historically famous high school).

I'm just imagining the people who just don't care and it makes me SMAD!!

So powerful!

I have cried over every one of these pictures. people treasure and love each other.

my heart is breaking...how can a family endure such a loss? yeah, I know - they weren't given a choice.

Heartbreaking. I'm relieved that this is a demonstration.

A plan for a hopeful future, gunned down !!!

Mother and son--what a beautiful bond. Please stay safe.

Central Park... 💕😥

Unfortunately and sadly enough some loose more than one child to gun violence :(

Let's look forward to when we won't have to mourn.

...and all for WHAT? Let us all LOVE each other!

I see you.

I see families that will have their hearts torn to pieces. :(

The bleakness is painful!

How do his loved ones endure the pain???

The world is what we make it.

I appreciate all the classic poses from well-loved religious art.

The pain is sooo overwhelming.
