To the Editor:
How safe are we?
Trayvon Martin will receive a posthumous bachelor’s degree from Florida Memorial University (From February 5, 2017, on the 5 year anniversary of Trayvon Martin’s tragic murder). I am so glad to hear this good news.
Trayvon Martin’s death really touched my heart in a very profound way. My heartfelt congratulations as well as my sustained condolences to the entire Trayvon Martin family. I will probably remember him forever.
How many Asian Indian people living either in the United States/Europe or in India know who Trayvon Martin was?
Doesn’t anyone care about the plight of Black Americans in this country? I strongly believe that any responses received will truly promote a healthy discussion on race. Frankly speaking I am a bit disgusted with our Asian Indian Community.
I strongly feel that a lot more needs to be done to further the construction of healthy race relations in this country. We used to be the “model minority,” but not anymore.
After incidents like the senseless murder of an innocent boy just walking to a local concession stand, how safe a country is the United States? Especially now 7 years later, in the new era of Trump?
I feel that we need to talk about such unpalatable issues, more openly, if anyone is interested.
