I wrote what I wrote last night because it was heavy on my heart and had been itching to get out. But a good night's sleep always brings perspective. This does not mean that I am not any less scared, angry, dissappointed, and broken-hearted over the Trayvon Martin case, because I am.
However, I am also encouraged that so many people have stood up for justice of this young child. I am not only seeing black teens and their parents mobilizing over this case, but I am also seeing white, Hispanic, Muslim, and all other nationalities pulling together to call for justice.
So while this issue makes it painfully aware that we still have a long way to come in the matter of race relations, I am also happy to notice that we have already come a long way. The only problem is that half-way is not far enough.
