Sky TV Effed-Up Captioning

Mockery made of murdered activist Sandra Bland’s name

Is it deliberate

Do you think

that your captions really stink?

Say her name fills the screen

But her name is nowhere to seen

The life and death of…

Space found for ‘new, exclusive,

really, moving’

By leaving out her name

What are you proving?

That Black lives matter not to you?

The truth of the matter is fully on view

Say her name, you mock with derision

And anger is all that fills my vision

Her name is SANDRA BLAND

SANDRA BLAND SANDRA BLAND

Put it IN where it belongs

And stop adding more wrong on wrongs
