Other people have spoken about this a bit, but I’m frustrated and angry when I see other white people pulling the “I am Trayvon Martin” thing, because it’s so dismissive of the real issue, which is that we’re not Trayvon Martin.
THANK YOU. Fellow white people: be a good ally. Support the cause without co-opting it.
