A woman who has apparently had enough with senseless violence in her home state of Florida, attacks her teacher and fellow students in class. She’d been interviewed about the Trayvon Martin case the day before, and some are wondering if this played a role in her actions.

Crackerjack Chris, you are the only indigent critter being ignored, as Elizabeth stated you are not worth the time or effort. You are extremely ignorant and wrong on all accounts.
One thing we know for sure, your uncivilized species aka pwt never owed or were able to afford slaves maids nannies or servants, past or present.
It was very easy and convenient for your parasites/parents to inbred,you do have gibbs extensively on both sides, correct?

All this blaming black and afrikans for all the violence is real phony.As far as I know,all the gun and ammo makers are owned and controlled by people that are not afrikan and blacks.The gun that killed the 17 year old was more than likely made in a factory owned and operated by somebody not black.All this anger over some so-called black president and this phony war on terror is the real problem.It’s ironic how some white people expect black’s be all quiet and be all loyal to some crazy country that abuses them right in their faces.

Peter:
Are you serious? You seemed so rational. You are blaming the guns and ammo on the deaths? I am no NRA fan, but da*mn.
I cant believe you blame the guns and ammo makers for the deaths of your brothers or the others. The guns are what kept other countries out of the ol’ USA for so long. Wiser ignores the facts his black kin sold his relative to who-eve bought his worthless a*s. He blames the whites for the slavery trade that made blacks in Africa so very wealthy….
Not popular US media news. Sorry.

“Peter: Are you serious? You seemed so rational. You are blaming the guns and ammo on the deaths?…The guns are what kept other countries out of the ol’ USA for so long…”
That is kind of ignorant to blame gun manufacturers rather than that fat b*****d=Zimmerman. But other countries were kept at bay by Euronuts penchant for violence more so than their armory.
“Wiser ignores the facts his black kin sold his relative to who-eve bought his worthless a*s. He blames the whites for the slavery trade that made blacks in Africa so very wealthy….Sorry.”
YES Chris, you are SORRY for trying to justify chattel slavery by claiming your hands are clean because your forebears didn’t have enough money to own a slave, or that Africans sold other Africans making it ALRIGHT for whites to engage and perpetuate the Trans-Atlantic Black Holocaust you frikkin MORON.
That clearly indicates that you are “alright” with – once again – eliminating all references to slavery or even Africa from your public history books because black Americans/slaves really didn’t exist…we just POPPED UP out of nowhere and welcomed the opportunity to kiss collective white butts into perpetuity. YES, that sounds about right coming from a Patriot like yourself…take that happy-crappy back over to Stormfront where they welcome that convoluted logic you espouse.

Although, I don’t condone her actions violence to fight violence isn’t going to change the outcome, but I do feel for her because this is a very disturbing and disgraceful situation. His killer should be arrested. I was talking to someone about the case and they made the comment that if the kid was white and the shooter black the shooter would be under the jail on his way to the electric chair. We laughed it off but I wonder how true that is.

It’s okay to stand for what you believe and how you feel. It’s okay to be angry about the Trayvon Martin case. It’s okay for ALL of these emotions coming out of people BUT blaming ALL white people for ONE man’s actions is NOT okay. The way she handled this situation was NOT okay at all. I was kind of embarrassed watching this. When a lot of people of different races and ethnic backgrounds think of African American they see bitter, angry and crazy people. This is doing nothing but backing up what they’re saying. Martin Luther King wouldn’t be proud of this. I do NOT feel like there was ANY excuse for her behavior. She could have handled her anger and emotions in a better way and got her point across. Whatever her point was.
Elizabeth

Wow! If you are black you are the type black that causes the rest of us problems. You don’t know what her point was…really!
When you live long enough maybe your eyes will open and you will realize that “MOST” whites don’t like you. They are going to look down on you and discriminate on you forever because they have a prolem with your melanin.
You have a lot to learn, pretty words will not endear you to whites.

“…BUT blaming ALL white people…”
Tiara…you need to study your OWN black history rather than relying on your white boyfriend/relatives/friends/employers to influence your POV of why blacks are enraged about this issue.
THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT nor is it likely to be in the future. Black/African folks across the PLANET are the DEFAULT elimination SPECIES for whatever ISSUES ARE OCCURRING and whatever the CAUSE….so you need to EVOLVE and get with the program IF you are indeed BLACK LIKE ME.
BUMP her videoed reactions were OR her use of profanity and MINIMAL assault charges to fellow students & teachers….she’s a kid and frikking LOST IT!! They were LUCKY; had it been me with not a thing to LOSE…COLOMBINE would have been the name of the game…no threats to broadcast to upset their “delicate sensiblities” towards historical INJUSTICES such as this.

That is why I have posted the posts I have and it is because I recognize the rage.
This is not 1820, 1920, it is nearing 2020. Black people today will not take what black people took in years past and rage is building which is dangerous.
White people can get mad at these posts, they can try and teach history or reteach or deny history, but a rage is building.
Keep discriminating and hating on black people until they are against the wall then woe to all of us.
It was a miracle that this incident did not turn into a Columbine, but black folk are not made that way.
However, I feel profondly for this young lady, and I am still ashamed of the young sisters lauging, and getting a YouTube moment.

Sorry, this kind of thinking is just wrong and will only lead to the deaths of many. Violence only begets more violence, and if you justify such things it’ll keep escalating until we have another civil war on our hands. I respect all of those who are peacefully protesting this awful injustice. The history’s upsetting, for sure, but if we don’t move on in a positive way, we’ll never be able to move forward. Those that are slaughtering the thousands of blacks in Africa are black themselves, so there’s something more than race to all this. Hate and anger breed only more human injustice, period.

RACISM NEEDS TO BE DISCUSS IN ALL SCHOOLS IN AMERICA. NO MORE UNDERCOVER ABOUT RACISM ON OUR BLACK YOUTH. THAT YOUNG LADY WAS UPSET ON SOMETHING MENTIONED FROM HER TEACHER. SHE WAS USING HER 1ST AMEND RIGHTS AT HER SCHOOL. ANOTHER PROBLEM I HAD…HOW THE WHITE MAN IN GREEN SHIRT CAME IN THE ROOM WITH A YOUNG LADY UPSET AND HE RETURNED WITH ANGRY too WITH HER. IT WAS THE WRONG MOVE ON THAT EDUCATIONAL OFFICIAL. I want the teacher to be investigated and the adult with the green shirt too on how they approached her.

George, she does not have a problem, she is fed up with racism. Black people are victimized daily and you get sick and tired. I am middle age and I have endured unbearable racism from whites. I am educated, I attend church, and my mother was biracial so we were not raised racist. However, my whole life, I have been treated badly by a lot of whites. Young people today are sick and tired and they want the same opportunities and they get tired of being treated badly just because of the color of their skin.
Like I said in previous posts, I do blame the teacher for (1) not clearing the classroom for the protection of the students and for the young lady herself (2) it was shameful to see young people laughing and taking photos, they are young but they should know better.
When the male authority came in he should have asked all of the students to leave and then observed the young lady until help arrived.
The whole incident was very disgraceful for all, I was personally ashamed. I am also very concerned for this young lady, I hope she can get into another school and continue on with counseling. Whites love to see you become upset then you can’t think.
Our President is a good example of keeping a cool head under pressure and our young people should use him as an example.
One other point is black women are often perceived as loud, nasty etc. and so this is why it was embarassing for me to see other young black women video this display of anger. It should helped add to the stereotype.
Black men are often the main ones to criticize black women, they have been trained that way. I see this everyday and to see these young black women criticize and laugh, they were really laughing at the whole black female race. So sad!
Mike Blair
March 25, 2012 at 10:13 am
Elizabeth, in your response to George you said “she doesn’t have a problem” then immediately contradict yourself by mentioning her problem. You also mentioned one of the presidents strengths of grace under pressure or cool headedness. Surely that ‘student’ could benefit from a bit of that. But to say she doesn’t have a problem ! ! Wow .. numerous threats of killing, hitting another student forcefully in the head who was sitting quietly saying nothing. Umm doesnt that fit with something else you complained about.. “being treated badly just because of the color of their skin.”? Whats YOUR definition of a psychopath?
You spend all that time defending this nut-case, then rail against those young black girls who had the audacity of documenting this outrageous behavior. What ??? Are you a supporter of the don’t snitch crowd?
(Stereotypes become stereotypes for the reason of continued observation of similarities by the way.) Can’t you see that if this had gone another way you would then be applauding the existance of this clip?
As difficult and as sad as it is … this girl has done serious damage to herself .. she alone must shoulder the blame.
You blame the teacher who is only trying to continue his class. you blame the school administrators who are called in to a serious situation, You blame EVERYONE but the one who is at fault.
On another of your posts: Granted that Chris Gibbs’ evaluation of the situation was less than kindly put, but I would hardly call it a rant. Your response to him fully fits the description of a rant however.

March 25, 2012 at 12:52 am
Completely misplaced aggression and a very divisive tirade. How can you support this and say that her actions are beneficial? This is CLEARLY not the venue for this type of “speech” It seems, based on some of her comments, that this is a science class. She is screaming at fellow students and a professor, many of whom probably agree with her. These people are neither the villian nor in a position of power to condemn Zimmerman.
Lischelle, RN
March 25, 2012 at 12:55 pm
“Completely misplaced aggression…”
Perhaps David King, but she SNAPPED regardless of the subject matter…besides, she’s young and probably is unaware of “white privilege” that has held sway for centuries.
Personally…my only regret with her DRAMA is the audio of the video – still don’t know what the heck was being said! – but I do applaud her passion if it was indeed about the murder of Trayvon and the total dismissal of the criminal act of premeditated murder by Zimmerman. It is MUCH too commonplace by victims of the black community by the dominant culture. Our lives DO matter….if only to us.

A responsible professor will ask classroom student-presenters to submit the content of all presenations, but especially about particularly inciteful topics.
The Treyvon Martin tragedy is embittering to African-Americans who feel the relentless sting of racism daily–it has not abated in all the years we have contributed to this contry and been mistreated in return.
This scene is the ‘perfect storm of arrogance, long withheld hurt, and an audience.

Yes, I think that the young ladies outburst was inappropriate. We must try to maintain our cool at all times because we don’t want to get shot by a “neighborhood watch leader” carrying a gun!
However, at the same time, enough is enough! My question is. Why was the teacher’s approach to this young woman immediately hostile when he entered the room? He has no clue about what had taken place.
For example, how was the airline stewardess handled a few weeks ago when she went ballistic on the plane, as she was making the standard announcements before the plane even left the gate? The people that approached her began to immediately try and calm her down. Their initial approach was not hostile and defensive. Even when they had to get a little firm, they did it in a way not to harm her and get her off the plane. Then her actions were summarized as she was overly stressed out, on medication and there were no plans to file any charges against her.
Now, this young woman goes ballistic because of being so upset about the injustices being played out with the Trayvon Martin case. And, the teacher enters the room and immediately assumes a hostile posture because she was screaming at him. So what! Or, should I say he tried to stay calm for 1 second. He did nothing to try and calm her down and settle her. He should have entered the room; saw what was happening; asked all the other students to leave the room and then proceed with being a teacher/leader and try to diffuse the situation.
She was clearly upset over the seriousness of what happened to Trayvon Martin and it had gotten to her. That’s all but some persons commenting here want to make this a criminal case but George Zimmerman, the murder, is walking or should I say, “hiding out” without one criminal charge being pressed against him to date and he murdered someone. No for real, someone’s DEAD! Those actions are what deserve criminal charges.
Elizabeth
March 25, 2012 at 2:16 am
The “BLACK MALE” teacher who entered the room is also a victim of racism. He has been trained that all black women are ugly, loud, vile and wrong. So, he entered the classroom in a rage, his hatred of black women came out and he lost control.
I get this often from black men. I was in a store recently to drop off a medical prescription and a white female customer was rude. As I was speaking to the pharmacist, she walked up and just asked a question and I asked her to wait. She exploded and I asked for the manager. He was a black male, I explained the problem, did not raise my voice as the white woman ranted above both of us.
After the incident, I went to him to thank him for coming back to the pharmacy to calm the situation and he just glared at me.
So, the black male became angry with me I guess beause how dare I call him on a white female. I never raised my voice, did not use profanity, had just left church, but he treated me like the enemy. I am very leary of black males especially those in authority, they can be dangerous to black women. I am changing my pharmacy location.

Well,after all the pros and cons,does anyone really know what this young lady’s problem is? Yet most have clearly stated a conclusion for her actions as if the knew her personally. I make no excuses or judgements. I wonder what the reactions would have been if the young lady were white and fed up with something she had taken exception to by someone black. Cursing and swearing and threatening. Don’t blame the classmates they too are young people and the teacher as well. No one knows is security was alerted by him. We all know the don’t always respond quickly. The young lady had no respect for authority when ordered to leave. Lte’s let cooler heads and hearts prevail and don’t jump to conclusions. There is only one world here and we all belong to the human race.

I can understand the woman in the video is angry, upset and frustrated over the fact that a young man has lost his life because of someone’s stupidity, But I really wonder would she have those feelings if the situation were a Black on Black crime?
It seem as if Blacks only get upset if a Black person has been done wrong by a European American and why is that?
Now where were Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton when Asian students were getting beat up by Black high school students in Philadelphia? Where was the outcry over this? Violence is wrong no matter who starts it. As Malcom X once said, a snake is a snake regardless of its color.

Are you frikkin kidding me? How frikkin IGNANT do you have to be to understand that a black leader does not WANT/NEED to speak out for other minority groups in the USA? We have ENOUGH issues to address without taking on the issues of other cultures!! And “NO”…I feel no guilt in saying this because they came here voluntarily,…if they ain’t happy…go back home and start a ruckus!! My peeps been here for OVER FOUR CENTURIES and can’t call on some foreign government to put pressure on the U.S. government for a d**n thing in terms of “rights”….I WAS BORN HERE TOO!!

“…you will find something else to complain about once you get what you want.”
Not a CLUE what you are alluding to Chris. As for my “complaining” nature, quite the opposite. I have had my “black card” revoked on many occasions because I didn’t SNAP justifiably (like the young sister in this video) when some white person called me a “N”, or spit in my face, or refused me entrance or services that I was willing to pay for…their loss, not mine. And you might want to encourage your peeps to stop with the “go back to Africa” c**p…most blacks in America have never BEEN to Africa and would be like a fish out of water going there to live now, I was BORN here just like YOU WERE.

Far as I can tell, she didnt mention anything about this poor kid. It has been conveniently assumed this is her point to help further your agenda. Like I said before, its terrible what happened to that kid, but the things you, elizibeth, wiser and wizardG are saying are just blatanly racist. As racist as your brothers and sisters in white robes. And no, one doesnt have to be in power to be racist.
Cant help you with the “Go back to Africa” thing. Unfortunately, there a lot of whites who are just as racist as you.

Elizabeth:
d**n girl. You will twist any comment to feed your agenda.
I didn’t want to see a black woman who is sick and tired of racism tazed; but, I always enjoy seeing an out of control fool, black or white, brought back into line by the power of a good tazing.
As far as the HISPANIC man who wrongly killed a black child, I believe we will all enjoy seeing him in cuffs. I am confident this will happen thanks to uproar in the community. I applaud the effort.
Why I am on this site? Originally, it was by accident. Dr. Watkins tried to turn a night out at a football game into a crime in one of his racist sports posts. Turned out he didn’t have his research in order since one of the girls violating his sense of righteousness was actually black, not white. But now it’s because it supports my views. My view is that all races are inherently racist and this site supports that completely. That and the fact that I am allowed to as a citizen of the USA. Are you trying to take away my freedoms? Maybe you were a plantation owner in a past life. Also, I am engaged to a cutey from Barbados, my sweet Marina, and she gets a kick out the craziness you all bring to the site. She says hi….

Sheesh … another IGNORANT azz comment from the only people that are inherently racist themselves. SMDH…Chris, there are ONLY TWO RACES in the world, they are white and black. There are different ethnicities but it doesn’t matter when even within those ethnicities the “white” or lighter ones in their society/culture typically distance themselves from the darker skinned members whether they are indigenous to the region or not.
Black people cannot BE racist as it is a position of POWER AND CONTROL which blacks, especially in the USA do not have. We don’t write or enforce laws, we don’t write or influence policy, don’t own major businesses or corporations so we can’t hire & fire, and we don’t influence social opinions with regard to social norms…not even in the ‘hood. Of course you – being white – will not agree with my point of view, but no matter.
Blacks can of course be PREJUDICED, but so what… it won’t change a d**n thing in society or the culture at large.

The Tavon Martin case is a horror. I agree with the statement made by President Obama completely.
But the headline above this clip is a lie.
“Florida Student Becomes Violent in Class Over Trayvon Martin Incident” As irrational as the girl is acting she makes it clear what she is objecting to and it has NOTHING to with Tayvon Martin. I understand the need to keep his killing in the forefront of media coverage. But seriously, is THIS girl the one you want to use ??? And I know that headlines are meant to titilate and draw interest but the senseless killing of Tayvon deserves more sober and accurate focus. NOT from some psycho-lunatic who senselessly and violently attacks classmates in a blatently racist way.

Your rant is stupid and racist. I would bet money if you are white that your ancestors were the big missy and massa on the plantation.
If you are black, were your ancestors the overseers?
Racism did not start with black people, it started when whites stole blacks from Africa, sold them in America and abused them until they were no longer useful, physically and sexually and killed them.
Don’t try and flip the scrpt.

Before you bash my linneage, I will assure you my family owned no slaves. My family has been broke as a joke from day one.
Also you might want to brush up on your black history. 1/3 of African’s were enslaved to stronger African tribes centuries before the good ol’ USA came to be a country. It was the Spanish/Portugese who made it cool to buy and trades slaves way back then. Most African slaves were captured by stronger African kingdoms and then sold to Spanish, Portugues and South American countries and then more European countries joined in. These African kingdoms used the slave trade to build great weatlh by selling there own people. So,if your ancestors were brought here, then most likely, your family would have been slaves regardless of what you think. Blacks in America who are slave descendants, were the weaker people in Africa. Captured by your own and sold to the highest bidder. It definitely wasnt right and is a stain on the history of the US, but you should count your blessing for the opportunities you have here in the US. Could have been worse. You ancestors could have ended up enslaved in Somolia or somewhere equally bad. So nut up.
PS. for chocolateice-hole:
Your 1st Amendment right doesnt include causing chaos, threatening to kill people and assaulting people in class. She infringed on the rights of every one in that classroom. Somebody should have body slammed her and cuffed her. Oh yeah. They did outside and then tazed her out-of-control a*s. Off to the jail cell. It wasnt racism. It was her own stupid actions that earned a tazing. Personal responsibility goes a long way….

“…my family owned no slaves…”
Sheesh…wish I had a dollar for everytime I heard THAT excuse, Sir…smh. Sorry, but you still benefited from centuries of free slave labor due only to the color of your skin alone, pleading poverty even now doesn’t change the fact that a broke white person has it worse/equal to a broke black person.
“…slaves were captured by stronger African kingdoms..Spanish, Portugese…”
Again with this MYTH? SMDH..Chris, you appear to be trying to compare apples to coconuts just because they are BOTH ROUND AND SWEET in an attempt to justify the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. Sorry, but that dog don’t HUNT. EVERY culture has enslaved their own, weaker members…that isn’t NEWS and YOU are the one that needs to go deeper into African slavery as you tiptoe around the Sub-Saharan Slave Trade that was going on BEFORE and AFTER the Western Slave Trade and still exists in the Arab world even today, quiet as it is kept. It was the dehumanizing CHATTEL slavery whites imposed that was the kicker regardless of their home country or religion. Research the “ZANJ Wars” in the East and the black slaver “Tippu Tip” who was no longer African but MUSLIM and therefore exempt from slavery and the right to be classified as an “African” IMNSHO=in my NOT so humble opinion.
“…Personal responsibility goes a long way, Lischelle…you are just an idiot…probably accidentally shoot yourself in the foot…blame it on the racist white security guard who tackled your dumb a*s.”
Sheesh…perspectives, POV = everyone has an opinion and an A-hole…doesn’t make yours right or mine either. But it is highly doubtful I would accidentally shoot myself since I have weapons training and have handled guns and other weapons all my life…so do not a*s-U-Me I would blame someone else IF I did accidentall shot myself…racist or not…sh*t happens. See the newest Talking Head summation of black folks having to come together because of your folks inability to recognize the value of LIFE in the black community:
African-American Lynch Mob
Posted by David Horowitz on Mar 25th, 2012
Is anybody else out there as sick and tired as I am of lynch mob racists like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton (vide: Tawana Brawley, the Duke Lacrosse kids) who don the mantel of the “civil rights” movement to indict non-blacks in advance of the facts, and incite racial rage against them? Yet that is exactly what they – and scores of black leaders — are doing to an Hispanic individual named George Zimmerman. Along with a cast of thousands, they are holding him guilty of racism before the fact, justifying a hatred, as inflammatory as the hatred once spewed by southern crackers against blacks.
There is no evidence whatsoever that race was a defining factor in the tragic death of Trayvon Martin. Notwithstanding the absence of evidence, this unhappy incident is now the occasion for school shut-downs, mass marches and public death threats by enraged African Americans, displaying behaviors reminiscent of the lynch mobs that were once a scourge of their parents’ generation in a now rejected past.

My dad warned me of of this before his death. Whites LIE! Tell and retell black history, because pretty soon white people will deny slavery and their hand in it existed.
I found it amusing that Chris tried to give a lesson on black history to black folk.
Lischelle, RN, you are correct, whites today may not be from a family who personally owned slaves, but they benefit everyday from having white skin in America, and blacks suffer everyday from having melanin.

Peter D. Slaughter:
You think wrong. I dont see where a statement of fact would lead you to think, incorrectly, that I believe an idiot like Zimmerman had the right to kill an unarmed 17 yr old. I do beleive Zimmerman’s personal actions led to the beating Trayvon laid on him which led to his “claim” of self-defense. I do believe that had this moron stayed in the car like he was told by 911, none of this would have happened. Its his turn to take personal responsibility for his actions and face judgement…..
Therefore, I believe Zimmerman should be prosecuted and charged with manslaughter to some degree. I dont believe its murder based on the fact of law. But I do believe he deserves a long jail term because his actions were the sole contributing factor in Trayvon Martin’s death.
I like to believe I am fair; however, I am tired of people blaming whites in mass for all things wrong in the world. There are a lot of whites who do a h**l of a lot for the black community, not to mention all minorities, without expectations of personal gain. I guess a little appreciation mixed in with the hate would be nice….

chris, why are you on this blog? This is a blog for black folk to discuss how they feel about an issue. I find it amusing because your lame attempts at teaching history is not what is being discussed.
It is only natural for you to want to see a black woman who is sick and tired of racism tazed, and a white man free for gunning down a black child.
I am sure if you look around you will find a blog which supports your views. Go there!
Although amusing, I am sick of your posts…get lost!

March 25, 2012 at 11:14 pm
For whatever reason, i am unable to reply to Lishelle RN. So this is to her.
I was merely replying to the Elizabeth’s statement, “she would bet money if you are white that your ancestors were the big missy and massa on the plantation.” Not using it to prove my situation can compare to the problems faced by blacks in the past and in the present.
In response to your claim dismissing the fact that stronger Africans tribes captured other Africans to sell and calling it a myth, well, you are obviously in denial. There wasn’t a white man in his right mind that was going to run around Africa capturing slaves. In order to build their own empires, Africans stole slaves from their families and sold them to everyone who had a dollar. The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade was perpetrated by African greed every bit as much as the others you hold accountable.
Chattel slavery was a terrible situation in the US and I believe it was wrong. But that’s the way it was throughout the world, centuries before the US existed. If you were a slave in Africa 400 years ago, you were considered chattel. No matter who owned you; it’s the original form of slave ownership. Not condoning it, but the US whites didn’t invent chattel slavery.
As far as modern day slaves, I was one the TIPS (Trafficking in Persons) reps for my company in Iraq and Djibouti. Yes, I have been to Africa and have seen first-hand the indignities Ugandans, Indians, Philippinos and Nepalese face in these situations. The Muslims there are hash to say the least. I was able to help remove several people from very unfair situations. I have some hands-on experience in modern day slavery and I am familiar with whats going on in Mauritania, Sudan, central Asia, and the Middle East.
As far as the rest of your post, read my response to Peter D. Slaughter. I believe Zimmerman is responsible for the death of Trayvon Martin and should be charged with manslaughter for his actions. He needs to take responsibility for his actions. This does not give you the right to bash every white; however, you do have the right to bash whites as your god given right as an American citizen. Bash on, sister…

I will start out by saying as a white person, I will never know what it is to be an African American. I can say that I was raised with the ideology that all people are equals. And have been the victim of bullying and violence due to my race. I believe the young lady in the video was rightfully upset. But to feel hatred and say hateful things about someone of a different skin color or origin is racist. Dr. King would be ashamed if he were to see the way his dream has been interpreted. I don’t think the situation is being handled correctly. The tragedy of Trayvon Martin’s death is a clear message as to how little we as a country have progressed with regards to issues of race. That young man died because of a man’s choice to act on impulses fueled by biggotry. We need to honor Trayvon Martin’s memory by UNITING regardless of color to bring his killer to justice. Do not let his memory be in vain. Do not let it stir hate in your hearts. Let it stir indignation for our system. Let it stir unrest until he has justice. But do not let it guide you to hatred. In summation, I will say I believe in one life and on love. Color should never be a barrier. Support Trayvons memory and justice!
Lischelle, R N
March 24, 2012 at 6:22 am
Samantha, thanks for your reply but this young lady is NOT expressing racism or even hatred but OUTRAGE at injustice AGAIN for the life of a young black man.
Blacks are necessarily a tolerant people but this was her breaking point and she looks to be about 19-20 herself, yet THIS video will follow her for life to alert any future white person in a position of power and influence to deny her entry to school or a job out of fear she will “snap” again in the presence of a white person.
Blacks don’t have the luxury of sustaining hatred for whites even after centuries of chattel slavery, and now we are once again having peaceful protests to let your people know ENOUGH.

I am very disappointed to see even one comment against this young lady. She was at the end of her rope and she is sick and tired of racism. I totally feel her rage and I’ll pray for her.
We are headed for another 60s riots. The time for talk has passed, I am also personally tired of having a dialog with whites on race. They are in control, they like being in control, they don’t want to share control…black folk LOSE.

Whites want to dialog with blacks to know what they are thinking. We need to talk less with them and act more by educating our young people.

I am currently having an argument with a bi-racial CHILD who must think I am Sarah SausageHead when I told him black people can’t possibly be racist and let him know that the POTUS considers himself black rather than “mixed race or bi-racial” just because he wants it to be so.

March 24, 2012 at 12:41 am
Though some my find the sister’s actions appauling I understand her “double” frustration. She was frustrated with the “justice” system for letting the murderer go home and she is frustrated with people in our own community who don’t really care or take this as just another one of those things (you know like s@#% happens. Some of us are more upset at her for “acting out” than at Trayon Martin’s murderer.
Funny how some of us could be embarrassed by her actions but do not show any embarrassment when we; embrace the N word, blond our hair (telling the Caucasian that they are the standard of beauty), and wear our pants below our waist (showing no self-respect). Add that to a lack of action from too many of us in case after case like this one and an aware person’s frustion might come to boil and then explode.
My hope is that if we do really react to this murder that it will a sophisticated long term national strategy on our part that bring about the desired results for us in this, past cases, and any future cases.
Any strategy desirned around one religious belief would be inadequate because when took us from our land we were Hebrew,Christian,Muslim,Yuroba,and had a number of other belief systems. They did not care and had no respect for what we believed-they still don’t.
These murders will continue to happen until we as a people design a long term sophisticated strategy to build a unified financial infrastructure of our own that builds us respected power. This doesn’t happen to those who have power-real power!
Hotemp people!

When the black youth start to show this type of anger, frustration and intolerance towards black on black violence, which we all know is far, far, far more of a problem for young black men, THEN I’ll buy into the movement. It’s complete hypocrisy that black people are paralyzed in their own communities by the gangs and thugs and violence, but now we want to say that all we have to fear is the white man? Something is very wrong with that statement.
Lischelle, R N
March 24, 2012 at 12:31 am
Uhhh Doug…this particular thread is related to Trayvon’s murder and this young sister being stressed beyond her tolerance point.
We already KNOW about gang violence in black neighborhoods and try to address it when we can, but we don’t OWN many media outlets that can or will cover that senseless violence so we usually have to hear about it by word-of-mouth or (if we’re able to) go onto YouTube which doesn’t have quality audio/video and rarely any background information on why blacks kill blacks. I lost a son to gang violence because he was in “enemy territory” which I find absolutely ludicrous since those youngsters don’t OWN a d**n thing!! Not a house or a bucket to p**s in, but they have enough money to run an “Anti-Snitch Campaign” complete with T-Shirts!!! smdh.
Doug
March 24, 2012 at 12:50 am
Lischelle I am sincerely sorry for your loss…may God bless and comfort you. My comment though was in fact about the girl in the video, as I am questioning the honesty of her reaction and the ‘movement’. Are we honestly so tired of the deaths of young black men to become this angry…because if we are then lets march in the streets to protest all the senseless violence perpetrated against black men. Or is this just about exploiting the horrific death of Trayvon to promote an agenda? Today some black child was killed in the streets somewhere in this country…we all know it…do we know his name?
Lischelle, R N
March 24, 2012 at 2:18 am
Doug…thanks but I am missing your point here. OF COURSE black people are tired of black on black crimes, but that is NOT the intent of this thread and there ARE MARCHES being held about Trayvon without the profanity and drama on this video since that is upsetting to SOME rather than the tragedy itself.
“Today some black child was killed…do we know his name?” HUH? What ARE you talking about?
Doug
March 24, 2012 at 3:12 am
Hey I’ll respond to the video itself. This girl isnt having an honest reaction to the death of Trayvon Martin! She is expressing issues far deeper…threatening to kill 10,000 white people and threatening the white people in the room is indicative of what her true feelings are about. Long before Trayvon died this girl has identified all white people as the racist enemies, and her obvious belief is that black people only have to fear the white man. In fact, Justice for Trayvon is starting to take a back seat to the very political white vs black ‘blacks need to fear only the white’ narrative that this girl is responding to. However, as I have been trying to point out, it is a very well established FACT that blacks have more to fear from their own…black on black violence is far more common. And if black people are so tired of it…why weren’t we million man marching against it before last week? And by the way…if you don’t think blacks can be racist because racism requires the majority of one race in a society, you might want to ask the black people of Brazil or South American what they think about that?

All blacks don’t live in ghettos. All blacks are not uneducated, but all blacks suffer racism. It is time for blacks to become informed and involved. Don’t lose track of the real issue, a child was killed (a black) child in cold blood by a white man, the student became outraged, I feel her rage.
The school totally mishandled the situation. He should have cleared the classroom, and other students, laughing and taking photos was double hate and racism.

It’s obvious this young lady was angry and she was frustrated at what has concurred so far in the handling of Trayvon Martin murder. The school was wrong to call the Police on her, they should had listen to what she had to say and if she had threaten anyone then but as I looked at the video from what I see I gather the instructor put his hands on her first. She was trying to make a point and it escalated and the Police was called, I hope this young lady will go on with her education and do wonderful things in her life, if she will not be able to get back into her previous school hopefully she can enroll elsewhere, she has the passion to do positive things with her life, and I wish her the BEST.

March 23, 2012 at 7:25 pm
As I tried to listen as I watched this video of this young student who was obviously enraged and frustrated by this whole Trayvon Martin murder and the the way the authorities have so far mishandled it. I do understand and sympathize with her acting out. After all ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. It is not that injustices against African Americans have been perpetrated since the last decade or century but these injustices,rapes, murders etc have been going on over 400 years in the America. This woman has just had enough. would I have reacted this way, maybe not, but I am not in her skin. I don’t know what she has gone through in her young life. I think of how Jesus became violent when he beat and chased the “money changers” from Synagogue in his day.
the other students laughing, especially the Black students thinking that this was funny really annoyed me. THIS WAS NOT FUNNY. THIS WOMAN HAD HAD ENOUGH.I BELIEVE SHE HAD WITNESSED AND POSSIBLY EXPERIENCED THESE KINDS OF INJUSTICES HERSELF. I think that sometimes we as African Americans by our reactions and behaviors seen here in this video with the Black students laughing and taking photos etc help continue these injustices perpetrated on our people. In other words WE DON’T GET ENRAGED ENOUGH. WE DON’T GET MAD ENOUGH. To me this was no joke or laughing matter. This sister obviously had had enough and yes she became belligerent but can we blame her. Gawd, I repeat ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

As witnessed in the video and reading the comments here it it apparent that her behavior is excused when she attacks her fellow students and disrespects her instructor,I call that selective outrage. So many times you see the negro express outrage at their percieved wrongs all the while excusing any negative behavior by blacks! Last weekend 49 people were shot in Chicago and a 6yr. old caught a bullet to her brain pan while sitting on her porch. Where is the outrage? This week in Cincinnati a 4yr. old caught a 9mm in the a*s as 2 bros had themselves a shoot out caught in the cross fire. A few days earlier a girl got shot in the neck comming out of a phone store while 2 upstanding black men traded bullets. Get Al here we’re outraged! Last yr in Cincy there were 66 gun deaths all but 2 were black on black! The two that were white were some dum-azz white boyz who went to da hood and got jacked try’in to cop. I point out though they were probably killed by black thugs who saw an easy mark. I am outraged!! and to my friend stayz happy be careful of the honky cracker you may cross some may have a 45 with dum dums in their first clip outta 4,I’m jusy say’in.

The same young lady in the video is the same young woman that is active in rallying in support of Trayvon…
All these critics aren’t or haven’t done anything to put an end to social ills but love to speak against those that know right from wrong…What legacy did you establish at 24? What will you have

We taking what is rightfully ours…justice, freedom, prosperity, equality and peace
D, here is the footage of dozens of other blacks that were savagely shot and murdered by uncivilized animals with no charges or arrest even with video confession but because of the same neglect by “law enforcement” certainly you will enjoy and praise the shootings and killings

YOu can only stand on the Black people commit all the crimes” argument for so long. “”Vengeance is mine,’ saith the Lord. “I will repay.’” That’s from the bible. God sees everything.
Bob Marley talks about your ‘Guiltiness” You racists have guilt on your conscience. So you divert frm the true conversation about your racist criminal activitly and spout talk about crime Black people have committed.
As I said: why are you here? To spy? Make trouble? All of the above.

If two black people are talking they stop and listen, they stare you down, they ask personal questions, they are just I want to know it alls.
Just stop and casually observe them, they must see, and must hear all. HILARIOUS!
I go to gym twice weekly and I have a partner on the bikes. We sit together and talk because we hate the bikes and the time goes quickly.

I just saw that Newt “the ho” Gingrich considers the speech by the POTUS as “race-baiting” and I just thought to myself: “Interesting, yet this RACIST can’t see that him calling the POTUS in one of his GOP rants the WELFARE PRESIDENT as race-baiting also, but that is what white rights will do. Anything they say is “freedom of speech”…smdh”

Lischelle, R N, I have concluded that if anyone is uninformed about the global system of white domination (racism), it is black people, not white people. When white people pretend to be uninformed and learning, they’re hustling us out of our time and energy. This system is too precise, effective, and comprehensive to be run by sleep-walkers. White people are the best actors/liars on the planet. So be careful of those tears rolling down their faces.

In my life time I have worked on many civil rights organizations and I still support them because I know we need them. My question to the citizens of Florida where were you all during the ratification of this bill. That is why it is important for us to stay within a civil rights organization no matter what you feel about them they work. We do not support them we criticize them but we are not going to do anything but talk.
As the Mother of a Black Son I stay involve because I know what will happen to my son and all Black boys. Young folk go investigate all the stories such as these then please get involved, I gave up a corporate job because my son was more important.
Stop criticizing Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson and stop saying the civil rights people are old and need to go. get out and go help we need everyone, It take ingenuity to pull these rally’s and protest together can you do it?

March 23, 2012 at 11:38 am
“…where were you during the ratification of this bill…” My sister…seriously, they were PROBABLY trying to find a JOB to stay under the radar of the racists in the PD.
I concur that young folks need to hook up with those “out of date/style” civil rights organizations from OUR ERA that eventually got CHANGE for the black community. Their only problem is BEATING youngsters over the head with their religious perspectives all the time. We are an inherently SPIRITUAl people which Euronuts take full advantage of, but youngsters – and I – don’t BUY INTO. It’s the “Ham thing” we object to, seriously…slaves until the “rapture”…please; get serious. We ain’t buying into that anymore, which is why Trayvon was murdered.
“…all the killing would stop…” Not necessarily. Until black youth are taught that THEIR ANCESTORS BUILT THE PYRAMIDS ALL OVER THE GLOBE and take pride in their heritage rather than shame, the killings will continue. I DID my research on African history and I am proud and AMAZED at what my ancestors have accomplished throughout the ages…smh. If only our children KNEW rather than being taught they were born to be chattel slaves to massa.

I sent ths email today to FL Atlantic Univ and I hope others will voice their outage aswell.
I just saw the YouTube video of the young lady who became outraged over the Trayvon Martin shooting. I am very concerned for her because I understand her rage. As an African-American adult I am very ashamed to see other black students laughing, shooting videos etc. while this child went through a meltdown.
I was also ashamed to see a black male authority figure walk into the class and acted more as a bully than a decent human being. What was wrong with the teacher? As a former member of a law enforcement agency the first thing to do in a situation which become volatile is to remove all of the students from the class. No individual should have been allowed to sit in the room laughing and filming YouTube Videos, this allowed some students to be subjected to abuse.
I am very ashamed of your school and I am doubly embarassed seeing young black people behave in this manner. They made a travesty of the death of Trayvon and civil rights.
Seeing a white male sitting behind this young lady, get up, bend and yawn as if he was “BORED”, was disgusting. If you cannot do better than this as a college…SHUT DOWN!

Chris…get a grip, he DEFINITELY would have gotten a BEATDOWN had he hit that sister at that time. “Gutless”, maybe; “stupid”…I don’t think so…ROTFL!! Sister was in the RAGE ZONE and even fellow black students knew better than to lay their hands on her at that time.

There need to be some real truth telling dialogue for these Black students to express their pain about about racism and bigotry in this society.You don’t see Blacks murdering Caucasians or their children. This society must change their hateful and bigoted ways of treating human kind. There need to be a frank dialogue about this dual American system,in order for this mess to cease.

Like so many others have expressed,we can all understand the frustration that this situation brings about, however we don’t do ourselves any favors as African Americans by lashing out at folks who had nothing whatsoever to do with an incident. I would have rather read about her going down to the police office in Florida and being arrested for trespassing than for this. It’s misplaced aggression. My fear is that some of us are going to use this tragedy as an excuse to act I seemingly or display bad behavior when in actuality they really don’t care about the issues at all. It’s like what happened during the race riots in Detroit during the 60′s. Some folks got so caught up in the moment that they were willing destroy their own precious communities just for the media attention. I’m hoping that this isn’t the case with this woman.
Wiser
March 23, 2012 at 8:50 am
Wanda, I get what you are saying, but it would read in a more tragic sense if she had trespassed any precinct in support of justice for Trayvon. Like other activist before her, they have been harshly judged &/or detained for being vocal about life’s truths.
And yes she is an activist, she is a young university student that is sponsoring a bus ride to support and demand justice for the murder of Trayvon. Like another poster commented advocating was done by students in the past and such should continue on today. I am sure that not one of those students that distanced themselves or any of those students in the room including the instructor were in support of JC’s bus trip and were planning on joining her in the mission.

The student has all the symptoms of a hypoglycaemic episode, due to diabetes. Her brain stopped working right for a while, due to dangerously low levels of blood sugar.
I may be wrong here, but again, she has all the symptoms. This can cause irrational actions.
I think we can all agree that her actions were irrational? Well, she may not have known what she was doing. It can happen to anyone, and certainly she shouldn’t be “punished” for it in any way, just educated so that she knows what the first signs are, and has a piece of candy handy.
The cops covering up for Zimmerman have no such excuse.
Lischelle, R N
March 23, 2012 at 10:50 am
“….I may be wrong…irrational actions…” Yes Zoe, you ARE WRONG. This child was ENRAGED but didn’t attack anyone black…only whites and didn’t CARE about the consequences of her actions for herself OR the black community…white folks can indeed wear a RUG OUT with their racist tactics and comments from a safe distance like the Internet. This child was FED UP for some reason, whether it was Trayvon or just being black in America…she frikkin SNAPPED.
“…cops covering up for Zimmerman have no such excuse” You may be right about a low sugar level, but I seriously doubt it. Low sugar makes one lethargic rather than combative, but I do concur that the Florida police need to be seriously looked into as do some of the residents.

When I heard about this idiot killing that child,it upset me to know ends. I also thought about the Emmet Till, murder because this was plain and simple murder. Parents and young people you must be aware,because the dark forces are alive and well. For those who don’t remember the Emmet Till, murder it took place in the South,he was murdered because he alledgedly looked at a caucasian woman. Go to the Library and read about this senseless murder of a Black young man. Young people and parents you must be aware and vigilent. Be an advocate to save self and your children. I send blessing to this family.

I feel for that young lady but her actions did nothing,but reinforce the image of how we can not deal with our emotions on a level of intelligence.By her lashing out at her classmates,some who happen to be white, she committed a crime.aka “Stand Your Ground” the very law in Florida,that Zimmerman used to kill Trayvon with.We don’t need no more innocent people dying!!!Learn to control yourself,and as you can see,your silly,immature classmates who were doing the laughing.

March 23, 2012 at 8:21 am
Kenneth, you are correct. I was so angry to see this YouTube video. I was also embarassed to see young black females laughing and taking pictures.
The teachers actions or lack of action is in question. He should have asked the students to leave, requested that no students video and asked for assistance.
His lack of action put this young woman in jeopardy of physical harm and as you saw it put students in harms way from her actions.
I was also amazed to see a black male authority figure come into the room and instead of asking the students to leave he acts like a bully over an obviously stressed out student.
I feel this young ladys’ rage and I also have a lot of anger at the college. This was a teaching moment and a learning moment and they failed.
Young black women laughing and acting silly in a situation such as this…DISGRACEFUL! They should shut this school down if they are producing such ignorance.

March 23, 2012 at 6:28 am
Wow,my heart bleads for all the students who have not yet been prepared for the hatred in this world and ongoing racism and prejudices against black people. It is hard to watch and see someone go through these emotions that are triggered from wounds that have never healed after over 200 years of emancipation without theropy. I don’t know what was worse,to see young black students laughing and not even understanding her outrage,or to see her exihibit her pain this way and not be consoled by her own or even humanity. Oh, thats right she went to jail,that should do it. People we have got to talk about this; or someone start a charity to offer free therapy to help us deal with this pain and degardation that know other race of people has experienced.

I hope that the student receives counseling and that the University shows sensitivity for the stress that she is under. The case concerning Trayvon Martin is heartbreaking and has caused a lot of emotions to surface. Members of the Black community have been dealing with injustice for too long. I have been greatly affected by this case. My sleep patterns have been different and I have been on the internet getting all the information possible. The only thing that has prevented me from having a melt down is that I have not had to interact with anyone. I am on sick-leave. I have stayed in prayer and I have signed every petition that I have seen. I have changed my profile on FaceBook to that of one wearing a hoodie. I have stayed in contact with Michael Baisden and Dr. Boyce Watkins ect. Hey, on second thought maybe I am having my own private meltdown. I will add this student to my prayers. We must begin to understand the time that we are living in, Black people are tired of injustice. If we don’t fight back as a unit, something is going to blow. Please, let’s see this as an opportunity for us to unite and stay united. Then Trayvon’s death will not be in vain.

Many African Americans “Blacks” are so mixed up by growing up and assimilating in this country that they cannot differentiate between reality and fantasy. After losing all of our African history, culture, nationality, land, language, traditions, religious beliefs etc. we were raised to assimilate into the Anglo-dominant versions of ‘everything’!
We don’t know what we are supposed to be we only know what we see and hear around us individually and under our varying circumstances. Most of us are unable to see the irony of our predicament. The oximoronic nature of our lives here in the US is quite insane, but like I said, most of us are unable to comprehend or see the insane ridiculousness of our dilemma. Most of us do not sit down and think seriously about who we are, why we see those like us unable to cope and how we mindlessly blend into this Anglo-dominant society and accept their studies, and lies, and religious beliefs, and deceptions as part of our regular way of life. While everything around us screams that we should all stop everything we participate in that is “white-washed” , and that we should think about how we contribute to our own demise, many of us are too settled into “the American dream” to see that it is a nightmare for blacks even if it does seem like a beautiful dream attainable for some. It’s madness that we seem unable to wake from. The only thing that snaps us out of the fantasies is the reality of being personally attacked, but for some even that doesn’t help snap them out of their “false reality”. Both The Republican, and Democratic parties are top-heavy Anglo-dominant, and many of our people have been drugged, beaten, and murdered under them. The republican conservative party is filled with the most racist of whites such as the KKK, (which have gone underground mostly and their numbers are much greater than ‘black’ people think), but they are not exclusive to the republican party and you must know that some are embedded as democratic politicians and members. We are ‘allowed’ to vote now, but because we can vote, the “whites” have changed the game so that our votes mean very little, even when they create the illusion that they do! Most of our children are raised to believe in a fantasy ‘God’ creature and all of it’s trappings, and now most of us never bother to consider ‘what’ our African ancestors believed in before they were murdered, beaten and kidnapped from their lands. Those lands were our birthright but the Anglo-elite now devour most of our African lands as they have our heritage.
I could go on, but very few are wise enough to use this information to see a clear picture of what we have become and how we still serve our ancestor’s white masters, but in insane ways, deadly ways, terrifying ways. Ways we cannot comprehend.

I have gone thru so many mixed emotions over this, that if the wrong person had said the wrong thing to me at some of the times I was thinking about the incident, I probably would have ripped there head off. By the way what was going on that caused her to get so emotional? As a concerned human-being I would have tried to calm her down. I am not ashamed of her or for her. I got her back 1000 percent. I am more ashamed of all the people there who should have understood. Oh! and you brother Norm; how, where, and when should we address this over 400 years old problem?

The subject matter has to be combined with the Trayvon issues. That is the heaviest on our minds.

There is more to her anger than some would want to recognize and whites love to sit on the sidelines and deny their part in the wrongs against blacks.

I am a senior female who knows a lot of words.

The same could have happend to any one of us or a family member… given the same circumstances. What will it take?? We all got here the same way. If we are enough for God, then we should be enough for each other. WAKE UP, BLACK PEOPLE!! WAKE UP! If we don’t STAND for something… we will FALL for anything. If WE don’t care about each other, why should anyone else????? Some things ARE worth dying for. If we want things to change, we must DO something to affect a CHANGE. Otherwise, our children will have to fight the same issues in THEIR lifetimes. WE DO NOT HAVE TO QUALIFY TO BELONG TO THE HUMAN RACE!!!

And if you were born and raised on some other part of the globe your views about many things would be totally different than what your mind gives you right this minute. It’s all psychological and most of our mental thoughts and conditions are built on lies, deceptions, and fantasy created to manipulate great populations. Humans are the most insane creatures on the planet and most of us live in total denial!

The real issue here is that everyone was wrong. The teacher ought to be ashamed of himself for having lost total control. The girl who is obviously very wrong for acting out and is very obviously racist. The other students in the class by just sitting around, gawking and laughing. None of this was funny nor was anything handled healthily. The women should have been removed, phyiscally from class at the first outburst.

Matt…sorry, but it is not POSSIBLE for a black person to be a RACIST. RACISM is only available to people who have POWER and that ain’t blacks…we do not write policy or laws, we do not influence social changes locally or especially internationally so the idea a black person is or could be a racist is ludicrous.
We have prejudices but big yip it doesn’t change a thing because we don’t like something or someone. No, I agree with Albert Einstein who said: “Racism is a disease of white people.” So no, she wasn’t being racist but stressed beyond belief.

Thank you Lischelle!You are 100% correct …I was about to come for him on his ignorance an inaccurate notion they so love to project about blacks, a notion that is completely impossible.
Minorities are not the institutional leaders in power in America or Africa, as one of the brothers stated. Its bad enough they have blanketed America with their hatred, greed and diseases, but they have polluted Africa with the same filthy. We need to get them and all their foulness the h**l out of Africa and America.

No problem Wiser. I think it is our duty to rid them of their DELUSION of blacks being capable of being a racist…we don’t control a thing in this country not even our outrage at being treated so abysmally.
BTW, if the girl is really named Carr someone suggested that her rage may be due to a family member being attacked in the past. That is true; a guy named Carr was lynched by a mob years ago and as is common his corpse was mutilated when he was found still hanging. So it is quite possible she was having a “flashback” of some family trauma. I wonder if black Americans can en masse apply for PTSD, especially if they live or lived in the inner city for 10 years or more…lets test it out in courts…ROTFLMBAO!!!!

Thanks again Lischelle, you are definitely on it…very good information.
Hilariously funni @ the PTSD claim, it would be a win…but it will also add to the fictitious remarks by euro-americans to say blacks are looking for a handout and the rest of their conjured up bull they constantly regurgitate.
@WizardG, you are correct the two are related and should be, the young sister is sponsoring a bus trip for those in her area to travel in support of Travyon Martin on Monday March 26.

I LEARNED patience the hard way…first with Euronuts and finally with my own people that took their anger out on their community…I understand.
As for the racist propaganda about “handouts”, just calm yourself and ask them to explain how the minority 13% of the population could POSSIBLY significantly impact U S finances to that extent. They need to look at the Trailer Parks and older “double dippers” who have a pension from their jobs and still collect Soc. Sec benefits as well. They get angry with me for pointing out such OBVIOUS details, but I give a sh*t. I worked THREE jobs at the same time, and the contract I signed with the government = FICA says I get paid for life. Let them stop my money and ya’ll can video ME gettin jiggy at the Social Security Office!! It won’t be pretty “Black Granny Goes Rambo At SS Office – news at eleven”

Hey Matt, Ms. Lischelle is on point! The true meaning of prejudice is to pre-judge a group by their race, greed, color, s*x, or religion. Black people can make a racist statement. However, the true meaning of racism is to deny a group their rights because of their race, greed, color, s*x, or religion. When have you ever known black people in the United States of America to deny any group anything? We did not red line housing, deny anyone the right to vote,wrote that someone is 3/5 of a person, segregated housing, or the arm forces!

So you are right…it isn’t POSSIBLE for blacks to be racist…prejudiced maybe, but not even THAT without CAUSE, such as being unable to drink from a public water fountain, or enter through the same door as whites and my personal favorite…KNOWING that you teach this c**p to your children!! Went into the women’s bathroom at a drive-in once, and a 5-6 year old looked up at her mother and said: “Mommy, that isn’t true…they don’t have tails like a monkey!”…ROTFLMAO!!!

A white cop might beat or kill her because she broke down, but Trayvon’s killer walks untouched!
She had a nervous break down. The same kind of break down that occurs after “blacks” have had too much from the reality of an over-abusive Anglo-dominant society! This is why we wind up resorting to rioting every ten years or so, when one black person too many has been beaten or murdered by whites/police, etc., and especially the overt discrimination and abuses by a white-supremacist society which proves through it’s complacency and
passive attitude towards our suffering, to not give a d**n! Every statistic reads the same as to our oppressive social structure, but we have been lied to for so long that many of us have accepted all of these lies,and deception as the normal way we must survive, or live in this sordid land. At some point some will be further abused because they could not take it any longer. Meanwhile our black youth will fight in wars and join the police agencies to support the same system that oppresses us! Some blacks will criticize this woman because they are unable to see and feel what she does. That is how confused and convoluted our Anglo-assimilated minds have become! At this point she should get psychiatric treatment but this racist,
retarded, vile, uncaring system would rather hurt her and jail her. And still Trayvon’s killer walks free and unharmed!When we learn in these colleges and graduate, and hopefully find jobs, we ironically work in favor, and support of the same Anglo-elite white-supremacist social structure we should know despises and abuses most of us! Sooner or later the white supremacist may get their wish and turn on us with their greater supply of manpower and weapons, in order to finally annihilate us! So keep going to their schools and earning their degrees and their favor as they keep
picking us off with little fear of recourse, like they did Trayvon! Notice that the blame is not just on the one racist German Zimmerman, but on the whole white-washed system!The system we send our children to learn from!

I don’t see what is funny about this nor do I condone her actions. You may be fed up, you may be broken at heart and spirit over the murder of this child and for the crimes against people of colors that spans centuries. However there is a time and a place for everything. Under no circumstances do you make threats to another human beings life. What she did is no better than what Zimmerman did to Trayvon. This action added more fuel to an already raging fire. If she gets arrested or the teacher or students press changes this is really going to hit the fan. Her actions did nothing for the cause or legacy of Trayvon, it hurt it. This woman IMO had a epic meltdown due to just too much stress and frustration. She expressed what was in her heart and mind and she did it in a very public fashion where she went over the line. This is not good at all. I feel her passion for the unjust actions of many, but I don’t support the method in which she choose to express herself.

I too understand her frustration; and it’s obvious the cold-blooded killing of Trayvon Martin is too much for her to deal with calmly. I don’t believe she expressed her emotions appropriately; but I also believe she was having a mental breakdown. Someone posted, “there should have been a collective effort by the black students in the room to calm her down”, and maybe that would have been the right thing to attempt. t could have made things worse. I did see one woman attempting to talk to her, but that woman seemed to approach her too aggressively. The worst part for me was; the laughter from those filming her, what will it take for black people to stop thinking everything is funny. This young woman was obviously experiencing uncontrollable mental anguish; and all those idiots wanted to do was film and laugh. One of our problems as a race is; there are far too many black people willing to reveal to the world, ignorance, stupidity and violence against each other. The only time we’re supportive of one another is when someone from another race commits a horrible crime against one of our people. We’ll march, speak and riot; then return to killing each other once the news stops reporting on the story. Sure there’s abuse of our people, especially young black males; but what are we doing as a race, what are the black mega-churches, rappers, sports figures, and professionals in America doing to stop the violence against black people from the outside, and from within.

i agree with her frustration but i DO NOT agree with her actions and behavior. black people have been hurting for decades over the injustices that have happened, but that doesn’t mean we have to act a d**n fool when expressing that hurt and anger. this video is ridiculous. this is why people look at us, laugh at us, and clown us the way they do because we are always acting with pure buffoonery. and then a reply said something about the black people’s actions in the 50s and 60s were comparable to this girl’s frustration. that’s nonsense. people in the civil rights movement had DIGNITY and CLASS! they weren’t acting a fool to show their frustration. that would not have helped us then and it will not help us now.
while i do agree with her frustration, i do not agree with the way she expressed her frustration.

It’s unfortunate that black women have had to become the ones with the b***s in the black race while trying to rear, provide for and protect black children alone; while the spineless, cowering, non-chalant black males seek out more “feminine” trophy mates to love, “honor,”, obey and protect leaving black women and children to fend for themselves with no one to speak out and/or fight for them as apparently black males have no guts except when annihilating one another.
And as for those immature, sniggling black students in the class, as they find this woman’s nervous break down of justifiable anger a joke, they think that she’s the one with the problem.
It’s a pity when modern day slaves have become so conditioned to their own genocide [and fratracide] that they think that the slaughter of another innocent child or person who looks like them, their Mother, Father, Sister or Brother is just another day in the neighborhood and of no significant consequence worthy of being upset or angry about. Any black person in America who isn’t angry has to be retarded and/or plain STUPID.
The rabid hatred that the beneficiaries of first class citizenship and financiial opportunities offered by this country, as provided by those who built this country whom they hate and exercise that hate against, is going to be the demise of this unjust violently maligned country sooner than the ignorant realize. There is such thing as karma and spirtual responsibility and this country, founded on slavery and violence, will pay for its obsession with the destruction of the black race. The time is nigh. The spirits have spoken.
As for the self hatred it has instilled in the victims of enslavement who would rather sniggle at, and/or aid and abet in their own demise, you too will pay for your role in aiding and abetting evil versus walking in the Light of rightousness. Right is right and wrong is wrong. Each person choses which side they elect to be on.
Wrong is easier for the weak and foolish, whether it perpetrated against you, your own kind or others; and you must suffer the consequences of your decisions somewhere down the line. However, the biggest fool has to be those who side against themselves [aka "their own kind"]. For the not so bright, its one in the same — you and/or your own kind is one in the same, especially on the first tier level of ethnic delineation, as there is only one race on Earth — the human race.

This is what happens when you push people to a limit, and you go on with life as if the world is alright. Or worse, you blame those who have been pushed to the wall for pushing back. I was stunned to learn that Trayvon’s did not deem it fit to address his schoolmates over his murder and offer counseling for those who might need it. And it has been a month. What were they thinking! Did they think he was a piece of disposable garbage? Did they think his friends would not miss him, mourn him? Such complicit silence is really louder than a thousand thunder rumbles and reverberates deep and long. I hope that instead of mindlessly punishing this young woman for outburst, her school helps her to understand the root of her frustration, take positive steps to allay not only her fears, but also those of her classmates. If she has to be punished at all, it has to be balanced by providing a safe outlet for such frustrations. So far, Florida authorities have failed abysmally in this area. It reinforces the overpowering belief that black peoples’ lives are worth nothing in this country. This has to change. Post racial America is still a loooong way away.

Trayvon’s passing has left me with many sleepless nights, thinking about how to constructively bring about change for myself and other black brothers. I watched the tape as well and while I understood her anger and frustration; there is nothing constructive or positive in her outbursts of profanity laced tirade. Let’s not dishoner Trayvon’s passing in this manner, because trust me, he has clearly been dishonored enough by his murderer and the Stamford Police Department. Evil and hate comes in all shades of skin color. Don’t think because she behaved in such a manner that her anger and frustration is deeper than mine, yours or anyone’s else. I mean surely that is not the solution or recommended behavior. There was nothing constructive in her outbursts. All she did was left everyone paralized and frozen in shock; hence the pictures and laughter. That is what people do when they are shocked by unusual behavior. The whole message was lost and she got expelled from school. Nothing achieved!!! Don’t believe that there are white people who don’t hear Trayvon’s cry and hurt deeply as well. Don’t be blinded by the possibility that there might be black people that could care less about his passing. Use the pain, anger and frustration for a greater good. Don’t buy into the great divide of hate, because trust me, the real racists are hoping; actually counting on that. Why? Because when that happens, they win!!!

Although I understand her anger because I got mad also that this young man was shot for no reason all because he was black and he looked a certain way. But there are other ways black people should learn to be heard throughout the world and its not being unruly and out of control such as this young lady was. We all must conduct ourselves properly so we arent looked upon as animals and viciously attacking other innocent white people. This video sadden me and embarrassed me that she pointed the finger at those that was in her class who had nothing to do with the cowardless man who shot Trayvon.

Although the Sister is upset that is no way for a rational human being to act in that classroom environment. She has not helped the problem only made problems for herself. I agree the Brothers and Sisters in the classroom should have tried to get her to calm down if that didn’t work, security should have been called for the safety of all, black and white. The classroom did not seem hostile yet I don’t know if the Sister had a close friend or relative killed by a racist which may have set her off if that is the case she needs to find a non-violent way to show anger. I personally know rage my maternal grandfather was killed by two racist in Alabama coming home from work so I understand rage, but it must be channelled in a positive,and productive way. Dr.King understood this thats why he chose non-violent means. Violence simply breeds more violence.All white people aren’t bad and all black people aren’t good.Peace and Power to the People.

I am still trying to understand what was so funny by the classmates. It is a travesty how minorities now feel as if someone owes them something and the fight is over. Yes, they do us something but we still have to FIGHT, PROTEST, VOTE, BOYCOTT and SPEAK OUT against injustice and racism. I am sickened by the actions of the others as well as those in my community who are not fighters yet appreciate the person who took the video. It allows me to lift this woman up in prayer and join her in speaking out about disparities. She does not represent all black women. Who she represents is a people who care and want all the madness to stop.

This is the link to the article that includes the story, and also a friend who was in the class confirmed this information.

This is tragic…smh. The other students – black – were laughing due to nervousness at that young womans outburst and outrage being fed up with this racist society as a whole.
But you are right Sharon…she will probably get sued by both the teacher and fellow white student for daring to touch them in her rage so we better put our pennies together to help her out.
Now could someone – anyone – explain to me WHY exactly some on the comment page expected a fight to break out with black students attacking white students? With the race problem in Florida plus their ignant-azz laws there would have been MORE of those kids in jail or sued rather than just one.

You called it right. It was nervous laughter from the other black students. What do you do in this situation? How do you expect anyone black to co-sign on her behavior. She just threatened to kill everybody white person in the room! Plus no one has the benefit of knowing how she’s conducted herself all quarter. She was probably a problem from jump. All we have is a snapshot of the moment. The movement will have a leader, but it definitely won’t be her. Black students joining in on her attacks would have just added to the tension in the room. She owes them an apology for putting everyone in an awkward situation. She accomplished nothing in her tirade.

The school owes the students an apology. This young woman snapped. The ‘dumb’ teacher did not clear the room, the students were not nervous, if so they would have cleared the room instead of taking videos and laughing. They had not fear, they acted very ignorant as if this was a joke.

They ain’t going to do s**t to her. She will get off with all the threats she made because it is a ‘sensitive’ subject. You really think she will be brought charges on? BULLSHIT. How many white people get murdered every year as a hate crime? (black on white) yet that is ok,. you people don’t give a s**t about that. or they ‘were just in the wrong neighborhood’. you never hear about that. Most of my friends HATE white people,. and they ain’t ever owned any slaves. But for a sista to stand up there and act ignorant like this just puts yet another bad mark on our race. What was done to that child was wrong,.. but wasn’t the offender spanish? GOTTA TAKE IT OUT ON THE EUROPEANS AGAIN!! I hear my brothers and sisters cussing whites out daily,. saying they would kill them. JUST BECAUSE they are WHITE. Why is this not a hate crime? AND YES I AM BLACK. Grow up people.

March 23, 2012 at 3:17 am
Mr. Colubus,
While I am not in the position to argue your claim to being Black, I can tell you that statistically speaking, there are few Black perpetrator on white victim crimes that aren’t put into the media or in which the perpetrator goes free. If there is a case like in which that happens, it is more often than not placed in national media as well as televised court.
As per your assertion that Zimmerman is Hispanic, this is true. He is not white, but this does not take away from the fact that regardless of the color of the perpetrator, the victim being black has had a long standing of injustice in this country. This goes to much of how society views Black people as a whole. As I said in a previous post, I do not particularly agree with how she went about expressing her disapproval over the situation, it does not mean she was wrong in how she feels or felt. There are many currently in this day and age that feel the same way, but do not have the courage to stand up.
Do not get me wrong… I believe that Black people have enough problems within their community just as there are outside of the community, but that does not mean that things of this nature should go unpunished. This criminal “justice” system we have has a history and verifiable status of incarcerating Black males at an inordinate rate for offenses that sometimes go without investigation… it is time for things to change.

When you understand your history you won’t need to say such ignorant things and your need for white validation won’t be so great. I’m sure you will not fully understand what I am talking about but take note from an older sister who has lived a while, when I tell u to study your history and understand the impact of institutional slavery on how you are viewing this incident &how u view yourself.

I don’t believe what she did was right or good, but I do understand frustration, Violence usually escalates due to the support or non support rec’d. You hear the laughter, see the pulling out of phones to tape it. I stepped between two black guys, both bigger than me, and stopped what started out to be a shooting. After I talked them down, one guy thanked me, said I was right and left the store. Everybody stood by watching & laughing, I left my phone, credit card & pocketbook on the counter, because intervention is just that important. When will we learn to embrace each other instead of degrade each other. Others won’t treat you better than you treat yourself.

Sad,I understand her frustration and not sure why she choose to express it in this setting or in this manner. She just became entertainment and for some, validation of “bad behavior among people of color” and a bunch of other stereotypes that those with small minds will use. I think she was “off” because she was attacking any and all who disagreed with her- unfortunately I could not make out what she was saying. What is the point of saying anything if people cannot hear your point. The point of this is her acting out, not her frustration with the terrible situation. I am as angry with the incident and it will not go away because time passes. There are too many “missteps” for it to slip into the darkness.
What I do not need is another brotha/ sista acting a fool in the moment and ending up behind bars because emotions could not be controlled.
What we be thinking if it was a Muslim who was upset with the recent killing of 19 in Afghanistan and acted this way?
She was not receptive to be taken outside to cool down, she wanted to vent. She did and it achieved nothing but hits on a YouTube. We are better than this.

I agree completely and eloquently written. I truly like the Rene Dance response up above and most of the responses in regards to racism and its inner linings thru out the laws made since this u.s.a country inception and along with the inner linings of our under funded inner city k-12 on up to our African University and Colleges. Our culture is under Extreme attack and has been for 400+ years or last just write since our existence into slavery. History is interesting and never seen thru the eyes of those who live it thru books because we did not write the books nor live the life, so, if your not in power of the society, your culture is a polluted view of those who have incorporated sanctioned slavery thru economic and trade means and this is what we fight today as a people. But, also lets keep it real, the rap videos that exploit our Perfectly Beautiful made sistuhs does not exactly promote someone I would love to bring home to my parents and marry, its just the opposite, a one night stand and i am done and i am sure this is not the message CIVIL RIGHTS, FREEDOM RIDERS and other such groups fought and gave their lives valiantly for, and lets not forget the gangs in the hoods. Sure, slavery disconnected the African family by the wrongful imprisonment of our African Men, BUT, how long can this be an excuse for our own SELF INFLICTED WOUNDS TO OUR PEOPLE. My Granny would say to us youngins often, that, “when you know bettuh, you should do bettuh”, and how many African Millionaires and Billionaires have given up on our youth across the country. Our African kids are amongst the Brightest and most Intelligent in the World, why not invest our finances and time in them as the other cultures do and harness such a rich rich rich soil covered in the BLOOD of YESHUA HAMASHIAC=JESUS the ANOINTED CHRIST. The devil works hard to destroy us, but we sure help the cause, and this comes from a 45 year old African, Native, Italian American from Chicago West Side, who firmly gives back raising 2 at University and 2 in High School and reaching out to our Minneapolis Saint Paul African youth of those WHO WANT TO ASPIRE GREATNESS from a BIBLICAL Perspective and turn around and teach the lessons they’ve been taught as it was in the old days of our Ancestry.

Too many young blacks are too uninvolved in the injustices, that is why they persist. The black students should have felt her rage, and shared it.
They should have formed a circle around this sistah and protected her. NO, instead, they laughed, photographed and split the scene. Cowards!

NO Martin, she is not “suited” for jail for a SIMPLE ASSAULT…your plantations were shut down so “jail and prison” is the only place you can keep a large number of blacks.
Being a member of the Left myself, I do NOT consider this as civil discourse as you well know, but like MOST Euronuts you have to EMBELLISH an insignificant issue to make it into a bigger issue so you can then point fingers at a frikkin NON-issue.
Finally, you know d**n well her “threats to kill” was simply an indication of her rage at the time and nothing more. Had she been serious, she would have gone Colombine right there and then.
Now you go slither back under your rock and give that white man (Zimmerman) more of your Euronut support, you ignant, self-absorbed moron.

being racist and a stereotype to every white person isnt going to get anywhere productive, the world can only be based on fact so when you recognize “Assault” you cant simply ignore it because she was “Mad”. She doesn’t deserve to be put in a classroom environment because 1. She clearly cant handle her anger problems
2. Disrupting it
3. Hitting people because there “White”
BTW Assault isnt the physical harm of someone it is threatening, what she did was Battery.
One more thing George Zimmerman was Hispanic.

She needs a couple of years in the US Army.She needs to work with and depend on people of other races or she belongs in jail before she kills somebody.

I totally feel her… She, like so many of us are hurting to the core over this universally unfair treatment and shame on our lost bothers and sisters just sitting there laughing… they are the reason this type of treatment continues… Like the apostle Paul this sister has zeal and passion for what she believes in… much more than I can say for those standing around watching

I can relate to the student’s fustration. This is the sort of thing that happened frequently in the fiftys and sixtys when I was a student. Today’s young people should pay closer attention to what is happening around them and act to prevent the situation that resulted in Trayvon Martin’s death. To many people allow laws to be passed that have the potential to rob us of the civil rights we fought so hard to gain. In the sixty’s it was the students that lead and participated in protests against injustice and the same attitudes need to be developed today. I wonder what would have happened had this been a black man shooting a white youth under the exact same circumstances?

This is disgraceful! I feel so sorry for the student who broke down and I am ANGRY to see other black students, laughing and taking photos. I don’t know what college this is but they need to have a class to teach black children some SENSE.
I totally feel her RAGE!

I see that none of the post here are condemning this young lady for the racial slurs she was displaying in her “pain”. I guess its okay to do this if I’m angry. This is a hate crime and she should be punished accordingly. She threatened to kill all the white m***F***ers in the class room, and physically assaulted the white teacher. Maybe Al Sharpton will come to that school and mug for the cameras in her defense because she is in “pain”. Before you start judging, people, black and white, are angry with the Sanford Police department. Lets get it right. Zimmerman is SPANISH not white you idiots. May God bless your hearts and get the deep seated prejuduce and racist overtones that all you are displaying on this site. One race can’t do it alone

You’re the idiot. They listed Zimmerman as a white hispanic (whatever that means). Regqardless, he is still a racist and sounds like you are too! If you can’t comment with an appropriate reply…don’t comment on this subject at all White Boy!

There is a lot of tension between Hispanics and African-American, so we don’t need people to add to it, as both are minorities.
Zimmerman’s mom (white Hispanic)? Dad (white, Jewish)?, so he is white.
Zimmerman is a Jewish name, he is part Hispanic, but Hispanics are white and dark, he is white.

Hey Sister……calm down a little. She has a right to her personal opinion and a right to protest along with other black and white people. She doesn’t have a right to verbal or physical attacks and when they’re directed at a race she is a racist. I do not have a friend that would want to be a racist. I put a racist just below a rapist.

I have a good ? for anybody that reads this.
How can anybody expect that sister,lady,black woman not to go off.With all the stuff being done to the black masses since the late 70′s up to now.
Such as crack and guns in the hood,distorted media attacks upon many black people by the media on a regular.Massive prison lockdown and lockup of black people,men and women.Based on some war on drugs nonsense.No jobs in the community,based on somebody making deals to take jobs out of the communtity and send them overseas.Now the lastest,some mexican dude pulling a trigger on some 17 year old black kid for nothing and based on some phony steroptype. What are you people talking about? Black people are not going to lay down,shut up or pretend and grin especially after this lastest incident. The kid died for nothing,over nonsense.Certain people can’t even except the truth of that and want to make all types of excuses for the shooter.

“…none are condemneding her…racial slurs…hate crime…punished accordingly…”
She IS being punished accordingly by lots of whites who continue to delude themselves that she committed a “hate crime” or was being racist, White Boy. Because you weren’t raised in the black community you don’t get to choose who we condemn or support for their public behaviors…keep that in the white community amongst your own peeps if you don’t mind.
And for the RECORD…black people cannot be “racist” as it stems from a social power base and we don’t have such “power”. Even Albert Einstein stated: “Racism is a disease of white people.” so if you want to argue the point, take it up with him or another white person that is similarly DELUDED into believing blacks write laws, change social norms or even own anything that effects the lives of those around them without care or concern if it is for good or ill.
BTW, good thing this is just ONLINE or I would be sorely tempted to reach out and touch your behind for our collective reaction to the murder of Trayvon only to turn around and classify us as idiots because of your OWN racism…or should I say “white privilege”? Zimmerman is INDEED a WHITE latino, you moron.

You are so right, we do have a double standard. I believe it’s do to the lopsided nature of racism in this country. The majority of the time it is Black folks on the receiving end of the hate. As time goes by the frustrations become so deep a person can snap. Thank you for your comments, I know there are people of all races, creeds and nationalities that are outraged about Trayvon Martin’s death. Hopefully with everyone’s support things will begin to change.

Whiteboy, first I do not like your statement regarding Rev. Al Sharpton. He does not mug for a camera he is for civil rights.
Where were your big righteous comments when the GOP candidates were making their nasty racist comments against African-Americans?
No comment! I guess you are what you post i.e. a white boy. Be a man about it!
This girl is sick and tired of the racism of some whites in America and she has had enough. You and others like you are dangerous because your actions and words may usher in a condition like the 60s riots.
The next time America may not be so lucky to survive.

White Boy, School’s in session. White people have many languages. Spanish is one of them. There are also BLACK people who speak Spanish. Secondly, this Sista has had enough. I’m surprised that more and more Black people haven’t emotionally and mentally EXPLODED. 450 years of oppression is a long time to hold one’s emotionally in. She just has had ENOUGH. I salute her rage. Once again it is a Black woman that fired the first shot in our centuries long RAGE on how we’ve been treated in the USA. No other race or culture, maybe except the Native Americans, have been so mistreated in the USA. Now White Boy pick up a book and learn, then walk a mile in our shoes. If you dare.

White Boy, your comment “one race cannot do it alone”! Before you were born, your ancestors passed down through centuries racial hatred, prejudices, Jim Crow under the guise of Christians, burning the symbol of Christianity to instill fear and intimidation in bed sheets and pointed hoods. African-Americans have long tried forming brotherhood with you Gentiles. Time and time again your people showed the inner parts of their sphincter muscle in return! For instance, 1955, Mississippi, the wanton, unjust murder of a young boy, Emmett Till, aged 14 by cowardly whites. White Boy, learn your brutal, sordid history before you question the demand for justice of any African-American!!! Ask of your parents as to why “Whites” are barbarians!

Sisters/Brothers, Just delete “whiteboy” posts, they are not worth reading and are only meant to distract.
Don’t waste your time with his posts or any posts from other racist on this blog.

we all are clearly aware of all the anger and pain that this young woman is expressing and most/all who are of color can relate to the daily onslaught of racial injustices we are faced with. she made an angry threat, zman made an angry racial threat and carried it out by killing an unarmed teen. pretend that this was your sibling and the killer was black. all the laughter displayed by the other non-whites in in the classroom was very disturbing to me. a sense of solidarity would have been more benefical. in reference to zman being spanish, what exactly are you saying do you actually know what box he checked on the census, and what of his adoptive parents, were they white or non white. thank God for an al sharpton, a voice for the voiceless. replace white supremacy with justice NOW!!!

And the crowd eggs her on instead of trying to find a place of empathy then when she returns with more violence everybody acts like their supprised. I think about what Harriet Tubman said, “I freed hundreds of slaves, could have freed hundresds more had they realized they were slaves”. We still have many black folks who choose not to see that we ore not free as any other group in the US. I feel her anger and frustration. Doing racism work in the church I often find myself baffled at who is also an obstacle in the process. The whold country is in need of prayer!

I agree with you Ms Campbell. Most so-called AA are suffering from normalcy bias’. Clearly this young woman has been affected by yet again, another travesty and miscarriage of the law. This country has sent a transparent message that Racism and acts of murderous violence is ok to set upon an AA. Her psychotic break was not met with empathy by anyone. Most of the black pple thought it funny. The whites didn’t laugh but found it astonishing that she would be this affected. What an awful shame, and the wrath of the Lord will be forth-coming –sadly

I totally understand how this young woman emotions got the best of her. Trayvon was and always will be a part of my family,he and my son Nicholas were friends since the 3rd grade. They also attended middle school together as well as high school. Their friendship could not denied,Nicholas is a wreck over this horrible tragedy. I constantly catch my son crying uncontrollably as he stares at Trayvon on a blasted T-shirt,looking at Trayvon on FB and watching through old pictures. What happened to Trayvon has impacted the world,but I know the damage first hand. We love and miss you Trayvon,love Nicholas and family.
