DETROIT — About four thousand Metro Detroit residents took to the street Saturday to call for justice for slain Fla. young man Trayvon Martin. JUSTICE FOR TRAYVON MARTIN!
Their message: We protest in the name of justice for the family of TRAYVON MARTIN, the Black Community in Detroit and all over the country. We are protesting against both institutional and violence in communities.. We are protesting against the conditions that breed crime and violence in Detroit and across the country, which is rooted in the economic powerlessness of our communities. We protest the disrespect of racist whites and foreign merchants and others, of us and our communities.
We feel violence and crime in our communities is rooted in our dependency on a racist economy, our mis-education, poor leadership, our economically depressed communities and families. Our peaceful protest demonstration is to show that a Black Man’s life is worth more than some petty merchandise. We are venting our emotions while coming together to fight against this racist violence that has created so much senseless violence again our people. We declare “WE” will answer to the problems confronting our communities through collective unity, and from collective unity we can accomplish any goals we set to achieve.
