Tracy Martin, father of Trayvon Martin, will speak at Texas Tech’s Black Excellence Gala, according to KFYO.

The event is being hosted by the Iota Upsilon Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, to commemorate Black History month.

“We are more than excited to bring Tracy Martin to Texas Tech to aid in the efforts of diversity the university is working toward,” said Bobby Akinboro, social chairman of the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity in a news release. “We hope this event brings about a revitalization of humanity of all people, no matter race.”

Can you imagine the outcry, if anyone wanted to limit the number of black players in sports???? I’m sure Al and Jesse and company would be out there in force to protest.......

Martin is perfect example of what is wrong in the “black community”.
James Robertson is an example worth following.

Good point, Dilbert. Those who perform the best in any endeavor should rise to the top.

Someone posted a pic of his neck showing his crip association and then another with it covered up with praying hands in this thread.

Tracy Martin, father of Trayvon Martin, will speak at Texas Tech’s Black Excellence Gala = nonsense. Black excellence = victimhood, entitlement mentality, pimping, selling drugs, fathering kids without fathers, and numerous social and moral failures. Martin, father of Trayvon, is not the one to speak about such things.

“Martin, father of Trayvon,...” Reportedly.
