Lamar opened with, “The revolution will be televised. You picked the right time but the WRONG GUY,” as Black dancers formed the US flag – before telling the crowd to “turn this TV off.”

So much meaning… most of it probably flew right over Trump’s head.

Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show was packed with symbolism – Samuel Jackson as “Uncle Sam” sneering, “Too loud, too ghetto, too reckless,” followed by “cultured chicos,” challenging society’s view of Black culture.

For those wondering why there’s a bear on California flag—it’s a tribute to CA’s strength, defiance, & fearless independence. In 1846, CA rebelled & was briefly its own country. The last of the grizzlies were wiped out by 1920s, but their spirit lives on. Bold, rebellious, & unmistakably Californian

Took this photo during a nearby hike – strange how the sky can be so peaceful and beautiful, with shades of orange and red from the Palisades fire in the distance, while so much devastation unfolds. The contrast feels surreal.
