"for daryl gates, for rodney king"

what has changed in the relationship between black people and the police and justice system in the 22 years since this song was made?

i'd say it has gotten much much worse

actually, no, you're right; it's worse insofar as incarceration rates are higher than they were 22 years ago (though they have declined under Obama).
