ABSTRACT
Traditionally all global citizens use their lens figuratively, metaphorically, philosophically, and symbolically to answer questions and enunciate their testimony.
In my analysis, I will attempt to answer the question What’s That In Your hand10 since it is a pertinent adapted question.

This conversation explores whether this question is on parallel to remaining silent in the face of in justice which is perceived as complicit. In this discourse, it is also presumed that the overarching principle of this conversation is this question since it has become part of global citizens’ life by verbalizing the testimonies of John Sidney McCain III, Mother Teresa, Aretha Franklin, Usain Bolt, Nelson Mandela, Rev.
