Many people choose to stand up for what they believe in and many don't. In a small block in Australia there were many people who got tiered of being treated unfairly. Gordon is one of those individuals. Gordon is a painter and an educator. He first discovered his passion for art when he was in jail serving a ten year murder sentence in Long Bay prison for shooting a man in a land rights dispute over his family's land.In a video he did he said" In prison i taught many people how to paint." His experience inspired him to use his art to show how the Indigenous are mistreated by the criminal justice system. This is seen in our world today because a lot of people use their songs,art, and voice to show how some things in our world are unfair and racists towards people. Many people in our world are put in jail for nothing and they never have justice. Many police officers arrest people for the wrong reasons and turns out that it isn't even their fault.Most police offers just have a high school diploma and they are given lot of power. Isn't that funny? Here is a video on how a man was sent to prison when it wasn't even his fault.

In this video it states that he was put in jail for nothing and they guy says " He wants to enjoy what is left of his life and get to know his kids." Many people who didn't commit a crime are put in jail for no reason at all and i think that is completely stupid and ignorant of our justice system. This injustice should stop!!
