I thought the song was celebrating the american dream but the video has way more bad parts than good, especially the second half focuses on the struggle of blacks

I'm happy and touched by this masterpiece but at the same time I'm shocked that Rihanna has chosen to be so political in such a critical time... and some of her white fans might turn her back on her, what do you think?
I mean the video shows a lot but mostly it shows violence by police

I am still shocked is this Rihanna's American Life? Is this career suicide like AL was for Madonna? I don't know
