As I was getting prepared to leave my hotel room and get ready for the NBJC The Black Institute here at #CC15, it hit me that today would have been the 20th birthday for Trayvon Martin if his life hadn't been cut short by that waste of DNA George Zimmerman.So what would Trayvon be doing to celebrate his 20th birthday today? Would he have been doing so in his college dorm room? Would he have spent a quiet day surrounded by his parents and close friends?
We'll never know the answer to that question because a racist bully with a fetishistic attachment to guns ended his life.
And since that racist jury set Zimmerman free, the massive mistake they made not throwing his ass in jail has become apparent to the entire world.
We do know the pain that Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin feel over their son's loss will be magnified today along with all the people who knew and loved Trayvon.
Rest in power, Trayvon. Your people are doing everything we can to help ensure that no more mothers like yours are mourning the untimely deaths of their children.
We're also working hard to eradicate the odious
We still have a lot of work to do to get to that point, but get there we will.
