Rallies are cool but its time for some action!

I have watched the country debate the Trayvon Martin murder for nearly a month now, and I have yet to hear anyone call for action to address the needs of young black boys like Trayvon.  There are thousands of young black boys that drop out of school each year yet we NEVER TAKE ACTION.  Every year thousands of young black boys are killed by other young black boys, yet we NEVER TAKE ACTION.  The rate of HIV/AIDS in the nations capital is at epidemic proportions, yet we NEVER TAKE ACTION. Many outsiders are watching the black community hold countless rallies and demonstrations for the murder of a young boy at the hands of a white man and many are probably saying why aren't they rallying for other ills in the black community.  I am inspired by the show of support for young Trayvon, and I'm 100% behind the effort to bring Mr. Zimmerman to justice.  We have to be careful with demonstrating today and turning our backs tomorrow on the thousands of young black boys that need our help. Can you imagine how other young black boys are feeling right now knowing that they have lost brothers, cousins, uncles and friends to violence and the killer was never brought to justice.  They are probably saying "what makes Trayvon's life more valuable than the life of my friend or relative, why haven't they rallied for the killer of my people to be brought to justice."  I'm asking 1000 black men and boys to meet me at a location in April, to create an ACTION PLAN to save a generation of young black boys.  I'm working on a location, when it's announced don't meet me there beat me there.  BRING YOUR IDEAS AND YOUR ENERGY!   The H.O.P.E. Project program was ONLY the beginning of this movement, it's time to take it to the NEXT LEVEL, IT'S TIME FOR SOME ACTION!
