The video for “Blood on Your Bootheels,” is a song Caroline Rose wrote as a reaction to the Trayvon Martin Case. During the aftermath of Ferguson, Caroline created the stop-motion animated video over 3 weeks with 12 bags of family-sized Skittles, most of which she “keeps finding in the pockets of her clothes.”

“Something was channeling through me, because that song is written from perspectives that aren't mine,” Rose told NPR. “It triggered all these thoughts about peoples' obsession with guns, how there's very little escape from violence for young black guys in the U.S…I thought about how this boy was holding a package of Skittles in his hand when he died, and how something as innocent as a pack of candy could be powerful and symbolic to pretty much any type of person.”
