MORE THAN DEM' is a mantra, a motto, a reminder to the world and to self that we are not them. We are so much more than ‘them’.
‘Them’ is an ‘in’-personal pronoun in the sense that it creates distance between the subject and object. To be ‘them’ is to not be ‘us’. It can often be diminutive, dismissive, marginalising even. What we are is: significant.
Significance is what causes any thing to occupy a space in your memory. By closing this distance you gain more information about the object. Only through immersion can you truly become a part of something. Whatever the observer initially perceives us to be is inherently mistaken, we are so much more than that.
