RESOLUTION

RESOLUTION OF OCCUPY BLACK CAUCUS AS IT DEFINES, QUALIFIES, CREATES, AND ESTABLISHES MEMORIAL CITIES OVER AMERICA; CITIES THAT EMBRACE UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS AND EVENTS IN HISTORY.

RESOLUTION NO: 02-12

WHEREAS, Black children have been murdered as trophies of white racists in post-slavery America long enough, and

WHEREAS, murdered Black souls discarded like road kill with no effort at resolution or retribution have mounted long enough, and

WHEREAS, young Black men have been counseled by their parents and homeys to sublimate their manhood and alter behavior to assuage and accommodate the undeserved hateful stereotypes formed in the minds of a majority public that would destroy them long enough, and

WHEREAS, Trayvon Martin, an unarmed, innocent, and beloved child was snatched from his family and community by a racist coward who felt superior to him because of the COLOUR OF HIS SKIN, and

WHEREAS, the murder of Trayvon Martin, as a social issue, has galvanized the world’s focus and attention, and

WHEREAS, Black America has declared “Game Over” for killing of Black people with impunity: “I AM A MAN”, “MY LIFE IS RELEVANT”, and “I, TOO, SING AMERICA!”, and

WHEREAS, we wish to commemorate and honor each and every Black child lost to the depravity of racial profiling, and

WHEREAS, the depravity of racial profiling is the result of evil racial stereotyping, and

WHEREAS, the evil of racial stereotyping is the result of the inane supposition of racial (white) superiority, and

WHEREAS, the inane supposition of white superiority is the insidious seed planted by the calculating 1% of Americans who wish to maintain control of this nation, its people, and its wealth via manipulation of the 99% using racism/colourism, sexism, and pseudocastes to divide and thereby conquer the masses who if united would surely challenge them, and

At 17 yrs old, Trayvon Martin "Stood His Ground"

My host stated that Zimmerman had in the past encouraged him and his wife to apply for gun permits. Zimmerman and his own wife both possessed legal gun permits, and were actively and avidly "sensitizing" the community for some time perpetuating stereotypes and fomenting fear about African-American young men saying that these boys were shiftless, troublemakers, and shouldn't be allow in the community. On several occasions when this gentleman went to investigate a barking dog, he would unexpectedly see Zimmerman and his dog inexplicably standing in his drive-way.
