I found this song that is about how police always seem to manipulate and treat African American with disrespect even though they are innocent. The song is sang by N.W.A and the title is "F**k the Police". Some of the lyrics are "They have the authority to kill a minority" and "thinking every n*gga is selling narcotics." As it can be seen in the title, the song is very violent and the lyrcis are also very violent. This song quite rounds up what many African American thinks about the way polices treat black people. The music violently shows its expression on this issue, but I fear that many who listens to this music would think that every police are that way.
Music is a good medium for expressing racist issue because music has its unique ability to convey feeling and promote certain feeling. As this song shows, music can be used as an effective propaganda tool.
