In Response To: The Trayvon Martin Case


“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter” -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Disbelief and sadness were my exact sentiments when I first learned of the tragedy of the Trayvon Martin case. It was a tweet from the Huffington Post that called my attention to the story. When I clicked the link to the article, and began to read the details I couldn’t help but feel angry, shocked, sad, and confused all at the same time. By the end of the article, I literally could not believe what I’d just read.
