For some unexplained reason, we are being forced to wait until 8:00pm Central tonight to find out whether the grand jury has decided to indict the police officer who shot and killed Michael Brown. It is difficult to think about anything else at the moment.
"After the Grand Jury's decision, we are asking for 4 1/2 minutes of silence to remember why we lift our voices. We are not here to be violent. We are here in memory of our son. We are here for protection of all children. We are here to support justice and equality for all people. We lift our voices to ensure black and brown men, women, and children can live in this country without being devalued because of the color of our skin."
