Oprah would love to talk to Zimmerman?

It's One Month and three days

still we

are waiting for an arrest

in the murder of

Trayvon Martin.

White/Black/Red/Yellow

people are gathering,

they are standing,

they are raising their voices,

signing petitions,

and

now

Oprah has weighed in.

No she hasn't called me yet!

But she has now spoken about the Trayvon Martin case.

She has now said that she herself told Rosie it is over for Rose,

she has now said that Bobbi Kristina disappeared before the big interview

and

she wasn't sure she would be there when Oprah arrived,

but she was indeed found by Oprah's peeps and was there, but did not want to sit down,

so they stood and Oprah went with it to get the interview...

But now she has weighed in.

She has let folks know in an interview

that

a killer is tops on her list to interview

saying,

"I would love to interview zimmerman".

...

Really Oprah?

YOU would pay, or give props and attention

to the man who self appointed chose to

be the "neighborhood watch"

or shall I say

"neighborhood killer"

He is top on your list,

the same guy that we all want to see brought to justice, for the murder of a 17 year old.

TRAYVON MARTIN'S MURDERER

really Oprah, you want to bring him on your show while we are wanting him booked, arrested and justice to be served?

[shakingmyheadhere]

ok maybe i am being reactive,

Banging my head on the wall now.

?

The man who called the Sanford PD

and said he saw someone suspicious,

then was told to not pursue the person,

yet he did.

And then he shot and killed at point blank range a 17 year old kid

in a hoodie, with a cellphone, a bag of skittles, and an Arizona Tea

as he cried to his girlfriend

"help me".

Oprah is wanting to interview this person

and

has him top on her list?

One thing is certain,

as I sat and looked over the city

of

beautiful

Washington DC

I was reminded of its intensity, its spendor, its diversity.

And I miss so much of it

and

now am enjoying being back here and seeing my beloved friends and the movement.

There is so  much happening now,

with health care

with

Trayvon Martin

and

so many who are standing,

letting the world and justice

know

the

we the People are standing for justice.

"We shall overcome"

and

we have come a long long way.

Hatred and racism

do not belong in our world today,

violence has no place in our worlds

and the lives of our children.

I have to tell ya,

this story is about as disgusting as it gets,

the web is dirty and it just keeps taking a new spin and with each spin a new attempt to create a lie... or to discredit a teen age boy.

Now once again,

it is becoming about the

political "left/right/" whatver that has to do with anything

but it is ugly

and

I have a feeling it is becoming more so by the hour.

The stories are being used to avert our attention to the horrid crime that was commited

and the mishandling of a murderer

that still walks free.

And yes,

we've come a long way in civil rights,

and this tragedy is proof that there is evil

on the streets

and within gated neighborhoods.

We all walk with a responsibilty to educate our children,

to stand with honor, dignity, we have responsibility for our behaviors,

with ethics in our daily lives.

WE ALL BLEED RED.

We are each our brothers/sisters keeper, like it or not.

Race is something that people should run,

not something that qualifies one to kill, harm, or mame

or judge.

Many are using this tragedy, and now this injustice

as their own platform,

through political doings and agenda building,

in police slinging and one up manship.

This was a tragedy, a sickening and unimaginable tragedy;

it is a crime that has yet to be handled

justice has yet to be served.

The media is not helping,

nor are those who are tweeting the addresses of people who are now in harms way

as a result of tweets

by celebrities

and then re-tweeted to millions

who will ultimately try to take the next crazy steps.

Further harm is about to be done,

innocent people will be hurt as a result of passion, emotion and misdirected anger

and things that are spinning out of control.

yet a murderer is safely hiding out somewhere with his pals.

People around the world are asking, writing, demanding

JUSTICE.

We have rallies happening across the lands, on campuses, Universities, faith communites, Capital Hill, the White House.

White/Black/Red/Yellow

are standing arm in arm, together

with one vision, mission and purpose

for the most part.

We must be careful in wordings, in the call to actions that we are inclusive

in the desired outcomes.

We stand for justice

for a child who was murdered.

For the family

Sybrina and Tracy

the parents of

Trayvon Martin

in their demand for justice.

To do that

we must stand together.

With respect and Unity.

Rallies cannot be effective nor the message be held as authentic or without racism

further indicated when an announcement reads:

STAND UP FOR JUSTICE

RALLY IN WASHINGTON DC

SATURDAY

CALLING ALL BLACK PEOPLE

IN UNITY

FOR TRAYVON

That is a powerful call to action,

but

it is a message that is in direct opposition to what we all stand for,

it is exclusive

and

it is a further message to confuse our children

and adults alike

when we are standing together

to fight

and let the world know

that HATRED/VIOLENCE/RACISM

must end

in order to

STAND for Justice together UNITED.

If we segregate our rallies

with our calls to gather

in standing

what message are we giving our children, their friends, our neighbors, our spouses, our relations?

If we cannot come together in our quest for justice for Trayvon Martin

now

how can we expect to teach our children

and

how can we embrace each other at all

in the greater circle of our lives?

We are stronger together

than we will ever be apart.

WE MUST STAND.

I've been saying this for weeks now,

through tears, through angst,

through and by listening to all who are weighing in and now those who are spinning webs of deceit and heartache to the family of this youth,

and listening as well to the children

who are also hearing all of this.

The questions of kids are many,

the speculation

does not change the reality.

and the reality is

a child was killed by the willful act of an adult

who was told by the police to not pursue him.

But he did.

And then, maybe he beat himself up afterwards

who knows.

But we need our children and adults alike to be safe

when they are not in our homes.

We need folks safe in their homes

without someone giving out their addresses

to others Spike what were you thinking when putting those folks in harms way.

bless our children,

bless the parents of

Trayvon Martin

and hold them closely in thought and prayers.

Just kids

all colors;

white is a color,

black is a color,

red is a color,

yellow is a color,

all shapes and sizes

some in hoodies, some without

all just out there together,

no problems

just together.

"Everything now, we must assume, is in our hands; we have no right to assume otherwise. If we do not falter in our duty now, we may be able, handful that we are, to end the racial nightmare, and achieve our country, and change the history of the world."  James Baldwin

It is time to stand UNITED

Neighborhood watch

is just that...

WATCH

do not harm.

And now O has weighed in

and

of all the folks in the world to talk to,

all the real people to  interview

she wants to interview

this guy who killed a kid.

Let's see,

oh yes, Olivia now calls him a

"sleazebag"

...

I wouldn't want to interview or give him time

for all the cherry blossoms in DC.

...

I would like to interview some kids though to get their take on this,

their view on how people are feeling, thinking

and

their ideas.

I also value yours.

Walk in Beauty,

oh yes, Oprah also commented about the Bobbi Kristina interview... wonder if she read what I had to say about standing in the hallway since she spoke to that as well?

I'm still waiting for you Oprah!

It is ironic how you spoke to all the things I talked about in the

"where are you Oprah" you tube!!!

"I'm still waiting for you Oprah..."
