The Prey Gets the Last Laugh
Gordon, a poor black man in USA died while under police custody. He didn’t exactly have a clean past but it wasn’t bad enough to be chased and arrested by the police. He died in the police car two hours after he was arrested. The car was driven by two police officers; one of them had an immense hatred for black people. This officer, Anthony believed in white supremacy. He believed black people should slave away and get food for them while they consume it. While Gordon’s death seemed to be an accident, actually, he was murdered in the police car strategically and sagaciously. It was a brutal killing for apartheid-----It was racism!!!
Almost everyone has conscience and they could tell what was right from wrong. It was protested all over the US by both white and black but the problem was that the police department was controlled by the supporters of Anthony and so the truth was able to be concealed. Instead of receiving hate, Anthony was greeted with love by many ----he was called a hero! Anthony was apparently successful in his endeavor; he was able to conceal the truth from society. However, many police officers, both white and black, opposed this as well.
But was he able to conceal the truth from his conscience? No---never! His soul was bruised and he finally confessed…….it turns out he failed to kill the mischievous beast and the distressed and dead soul got the final stab in and killed him permanently!
In this realistic fictional novel, other than the protagonists Gordon and Anthony, many other characters like Gordon’s dad Charles and mom Fiona, Anthony’s dad David and mom Olivia played conflicting, supporting, and intertwined roles to unveil a realistic world from deep meaningful imagination. Also the inevitable turbulent characters which stitched the flow of the story are Beckie — Olivia’s friend, Samuel — Gordon’s friend, Ashley, a cute girl — one sided lover to Gordon, Katy, a white girl and the dream of Gordon, police officer Richard, Nickolas. Many from among them, in the real life, might proudly feel better to be characterized by conscience as human being, rather than to be privileged by visible color difference!
Anyone can be proud of their strength for conceiving the source of powerful race, color, religion, wealth, and/or just majority of number in the society externally. But it never can be the source of strength. Internally, even the most distressed, most aggrieved, the poorest, and/or even a lonely person can be the strongest in the society for conceiving power from conscience. Ear-splitting obligation to the society to mass people can be much easier than silent accountability to your own conscientious!!!
Racism can even dumb conscience momentarily but can’t kill it eternally!!!
