Description
In the scene, a police officer sits in a hospital room reading a news paper. The headline titled "Racist Massacre in Church." details a tragic shooting at an African American church.
The cop is guarding a handcuffed man lying on the bed inked with fascist tattoos all over his body. A stark contrast to the compassionate figure of a black nurse attending to him, despite his heinous actions.
The man, blindfolded, remains oblivious to the nurse's race, finding solace in her care. In the reflections cast by the screen and window, ethereal imagery of a halo and wings suggest the nurse embodies an angelic presence.
A closer look to the newspaper reveals the passing of the "Blinding Law," wherein perpetrators of racist crimes are sentenced to blindness—an ironic twist that explains the murderer's sightless state.
As the saying goes, "You can't be racist if you can't see."
