The Rodney King beating has unfortunately celebrated it's 20th anniversary. It was a sad time once again in Americas hatred of black culture and people in America.
There is a generation of young people who does not know his story.
Rodney King was a black man who got stopped for speeding and during the course of his stop, 4 white police officers blatantly beat him with night sticks until he was broken all over.
A white citizen recorded this on camera and the world saw the horror of the LAPD. The trial took place in Simi Valley because their lawyer said they will not get a fair trial. Fair trial?, funny
Statement when it applies to people other than black. All police officers were found not guilty by an all white jury and got the next week riots ravaged the city
What America don't realize,we are a peaceful people by nature, of course you will find good and bad in all groups but to have injustice so "FUCK YOU"
The entire world felt that,if justice would have been fair death and destruction would not have taken place. Now fast forward 20yrs later,we are here again with more racial injustice against a 17 yr old kid whose future of promise was destroyed. The police in this case tried to just push this case into the file cabinet and chalk it up to statistics. This is the mentality still of some people in this country against people of color.
The outrage and ground swell grew so much, the social media was siding the family in getting justice.
It has been troubling twittering with people who believe Zimmerman was not guilty in just standing his ground.
I can write forever about this but I refrain and let my Tweets talk,
Wish that true justice will fall on all parties who had a hand in all things of Mr. Trayvon Martin
Pass a bill Trayon's Law
On profiling
Peace
We live in a video culture
One
