AP ^ | May 11, 2016 | Associated Press

Trayvon Martin has often been in the thoughts of playwright and activist Rajendra Ramoon Maharaj in the four years since the 17-year-old unarmed black boy was shot and killed after a confrontation with neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman.

He has wondered about Martin's dreams, his life and the moments before he died.

Hoodies high, ranks closed
The homies march with pants slung low.
Comrades shot by the white hispanics
march in spirit with us in our ranks.
The street free for the brown battalions,
The street free for the grievance lords.
Millions, full of dope, look up at the skittles;
The day breaks for freedom and for skittles.
For the last time the lean will now be drunk;
For the struggle now we all stand ready.
Soon will fly Trayvon-flags over every street;
Old School will last only a short time longer.
Hoodies high, ranks closed,
The homies march with pants slung low.
Comrades shot by the white hispanics
march in spirit with us in our ranks.

It’s sung to the tune of a catchy little German ditty from the 30’s. ;)

when you’re stronger and beating a guys head on the cement it doesn’t matter if you are “unarmed.”

Yesterday in the LA Crimes regarding the story that the guy burned down a 100 million dollar construction because Michael Brown was unarmed and killed, the Crimes forgot to say, that he was trying to take the cops gun and then refused to stop.

Unarmed indeed!

I’m sure the Free Mumia crowd will be out in force to celebrate the legacy of St.Skittles.

I agree; more people are murdered every year by “hands and feet” (FBI’s term) than by rifles.

Every one of those “hands and feet” murderers committed their murder while “unarmed”.

The phraseology is simply the leftist attempt to frame the debate.

Well, it might be in the same league with “The Ballad of John and Yoko”

Did you know that in fact a jury found George Zimmerman not guilty and completely exonerated him? Let us honor HIM not the thug threatening his life!!

Being a liberal means being a criminal so naturally the liberals would saint a thug.

Pay no attention to the evidence and testimony. That’s the only way this play works.

Should be a question to candidates in every debate:

Are you sympathetic to Trayvon or Zimmerman?

How is the scene where Travon sells off the goods he stole from his neighbors?
