I live in Baltimore. I am not going to try and dissect this video in a proper diary (and I hope that's not a big no-no as this is my first)--there has been so much great commentary already out there and it is late and I just want this young man to be heard. He passionately refuses to be treated as less than human. He demands justice, equality. He declares to the world that he will not be a statistic and will counter the oppression by being successful. It is worth it just to listen to him for 2 minutes. Just to take in and try to feel what he is saying. To understand that this is coming from the mouth of a 15 year old. There is anger, anguish, and power all within this boy's voice.
