Black Youth Project: George Zimmerman 'Consumed by White Supremacy'
Sunshine State News ^ | August 13, 2013 | Allison Nielsen

Posted on 08/14/2013 7:33:45 AM PDT by kevcol

BYP 100, a young black activist group convened by the Black Youth Project to "mobilize communities of color beyond electoral politics" has created a "Justice for Trayvon Toolkit" booklet that covers a wide range of issues from white supremacy, the Marissa Alexander case and "stop and frisk" laws in new York.

The first page shows a graphic of a smiling Trayvon Martin, while the second page shows a raised fist holding a package of Skittles.

The toolkit includes readings on race, gender and justice as well as action steps for readers. A good chunk of the pamphlet is fixated on white supremacy and what BYP calls "internalized racism" between Zimmerman and Martin.

One of the descriptions of readings on witness Rachel Jeantel reads: "exploration into white supremacy and the white gaze that end up killing Trayvon ... much the same as the one that devalues Rachel Jeantel."

The toolkit explores what BYP calls "white supremacy" in virtually every aspect of the George Zimmerman trial, and deems Zimmerman "consumed by white supremacy."

"George Zimmerman is ethnically latino -- however, he has the same racial privilege as [a] white person, living in a gated community," reads the toolkit. "He has a light skin color, and he holds no Spanish name. So Zimmerman is so whitewashed, and consumed by white supremacy that is why he is white."

The toolkit includes action steps for youth organization in the community, urging readers to take the toolkit and use it for their own movements.

The pamphlet has already gathered the attention of the Dream Defenders, who have been camped out in front of Gov. Rick Scott's office for 29 days. The Dream Defenders posted a download link for the booklet on their Twitter page, which boasts over 12,000 followers.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by their ability to give a whoopin' to every cracka they meet.

Yup, that race war is coming.

Liberals, your plan to decimate non white races is succeeding way past your expectations.

Isn’t is amusing when racists call other people who aren’t - “racist”?

hHow long ago did this case happen? 18 months ago, about? I’m still waiting for one single solitary shred of proof that shows Zimmerman was racist or even prejudice.

“What color is he?”

“I think he’s black”

That’s about as close as it got discounting the racists at NBC who edited that call. What other proof do they have?

That Zimmerman walked in Trayvons general direction for a block? I say “general direction” because he lost sight of him. And if you discount that time he lost sight of him, probably the most Zimmerman “followed” Trayvon was about 30 feet.

So according to them, we should all watch our asses because walking behind a black man for 30 feet gives that black man the right to make an attempt on your life.

“...the second page shows a raised fist holding a package of Skittles.”

“Truth is stranger than fiction, because fiction requires logic.” - El Rushbo

Anyway, race war is coming and since millions of scared non-melaninians believe this & are arming themselves to the teeth, it’s not going to end well for the Entitlement Community.

MASSIV BARF ALERT!! Does anyone notice that we no longer have these Barf alert next to articles? Me thinks the country under Obama has gotten so backwards these sort of articles are practically every hour now instead of once a week or even every couple of weeks.

Very sad indeed.

So Zimmerman is so whitewashed, and consumed by white supremacy

That would certainly explain his mentoring of Black children...

These people are evil, plain and simple.

Fomenting ? Successful.

Actually pulling it off ? Doubtful, purely from a mumbers standpoint.
