Many of you have expressed your outrage in the comments section and some have even sent me emails about how?White supremacists are having a field day with the Zimmerman verdict?in various online forums.

Nasheed breaks it down for those of you who feel that Zimmerman’s acquittal was “just” and says Trayvon’s killing is comparable to a lynching.

“We make excuses for everyone else, while everyone else throws us up under the bus.” – T. Nasheed

As I was on twitter express my disappointment about the verdict, someone commented to me that Trayvon “should have been home”… or he should have “went to a well lit area and called authorities like a sensible person would.”

Coincidentally, Tariq mentions a book called Sundown Towns: A Hidden Dimension of American Racism
which details “racial politics” involving how back in the day, Blacks were banned from being in certain areas after sundown, and many were killed for breaking that unwritten rule (ring any bells?).
