Childish Gambino - This Is America

Is there anything Donald Glover doesn't do.

Seriously. Atlanta (which he stars in, and frequently writes and directs) is one of the best shows on TV right now, and he's right on the verge of becoming a full-out movie star later this month. There's definitely an EGOT in his future.

I'm greatly disturbed by the first execution sequence.
Why is it there, and what significance does it play in this video?
It's no nonchalant and unimportant like it's just another dance step which in turn makes it all the more gruesome.

A life is lost for no apparent reason, and as we dance and sing our way through the video, no one looks back to even care that this soul was lost.

Then in the second sequence, the choir is executed...(?) Why?

There is a major statement being made here, but what is it?
His smiles and dancing seem like there is no care in the world until the very end when he's running - and we never get to find out why or who he's running from....
