The rise of the Black Lives Matter movement ignited activists, politicians, and police officials to look for new solutions to the sometimes complicated relationship between cops and the citizens they serve. Chance The Rapper is adding his voice to the topic of excessive force by law enforcement. The Chicago artist addressed the issue in a recent Billboard Cover story. “There’s a larger conversation we need to have about the role of police officers, their relationship to the people as enemy or executioner, when they’re not supposed to be either,” said Chance. “There’s also not enough pressure on internal organizations that are supposed to police the police and on judges in the justice system who are supposed to make reasonable decisions.” The creator of the acclaimed Coloring Book project has also been an advocate for ending the street violence taking place in his hometown. In 2014, Chance’s #SaveChicago campaign forced a ceasefire for 42 hours over Memorial Day weekend. A year later, he took part in a non-violent youth poetry festival in the windy city. The “No Problem” rhymer has also spoken with President Barack Obama about the My Brother’s Keeper initiative for male minority youth and criminal justice reform.
