My Brief Thoughts On The Trayvon Martin Murder By George Zimmerman.
To be perfectly honest with everyone, I have two teenage boys who are Black, and this tragedy hits home. I don't want to think there are murderers out there who will target my sons for killings because they look suspicious by being Black and wearing a hoodie in a gated community.
I pray someone here tells me how Blacks are supposed to dress so they do not look suspicious, whether they can safely visit others in a gated community and whether all of that won't save them because their skin color renders them PREY to be hunted down and murdered.
ANYONE?
Update: if you want, listen to the 911 tape, go here.
