“When Trayvon Martin was shot and our community went into a response to that, there was no question in my mind that America was being awakened to its reality,”
He continued on to speak about the importance of voting with the election coming up.
“The vote is perhaps the single most important weapon in our arsenal,”
In the PSA, he says,
“You cannot just go about, if it’s once or twice you can say it’s an accident or a coincidence, but when you have as large a population of murdered young men in the streets of America and they’re all black or of African American descent, I think someone is sending us a message. We should respond to that message.”
