Michael Brown exhibit opened in Chicago
KTVI-TV ^ | July 10, 2015 | Staff

A new art exhibit about the Michael Brown police shooting in Ferguson is on display in Chicago.

The piece features a life-size portrayal of Michael Brown after he was killed last year in Ferguson.

It also includes a black statue of liberty, and a noose dangling from a neon sign.

The exhibit also features a plaque with the words “I Can’t Breath”; referencing the Eric Garner police involved death in New York.

A Brown family member praises the exhibit.

The artist is a white woman from New Orleans.

She says it represents white privilege in America and how it negatively affects the black community.

The exhibit runs through August 10th.

Huh. Sounds to me like it represents black privilege in America and how it negatively affects the white community. Or, perhaps, the whole community.

Not a museum. A gallery:

Just an attempt to be provocative and get people to come to the gallery. What patron of the arts would buy this “installation”?

I still can't figure out why white liberals feel guilty about black criminals being killed...

If this white idiot liberal women wants to make an "art" exhibit, how about one for all the dead children killed in Chicago by gang banger...?

Where is the kinetic art depicting slamming a car door on a policeman, wrestling for his gun and firing it, and charging at the police while being told to halt?

I think there would be a market for Michael Brown coffee tables.

Will they do an OJ crime scene exhibit for no other reason than just being fair and balanced?

Should run the convenience store robbery video on that flat screen, or does that flat screen represent justice?
