Pastor Ronald Slaughter wore his Sunday best, plus a white hoodie sweatshirt as he preached his Palm Sunday sermon today.
Slaughter and members of his congregation at St. James AME Church in Newark donned hoodies in honor of Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen gunned down by a neighborhood watch captain last month.
Several congregants wore their hoodies up while others sitting in the pews came in regular dress. Slaughter, who wore a white zipped up hoodie sweatshirt over a shirt and tie, and other church leaders behind the pulpit wore hoodies but did not cover their heads.

This is exactly how we would celebrate Palm Sunday in our church
You can’t make this kind of stupidity and racism up. If you tried to write this story you’d be laughed at, tarred and feathered.
Racist Pastor!
Pray for America
well isn’t that precious
Fine. The chaff is separating itself from the wheat.
They praise the Lord on Sunday and hate their fellow man everyday. I’m sure the Lord will be happy to explain their errors on their day of judgement.
The so-called black reverends have led so many souls to perdition. They will have alot to answer for.
They wear a hoodie to church to show solidarity with a thug Black Foot Soldier. Only in obamas America!
Always victims. It’s a way of life.
I talked to my cab driver (black man) friday, who was upset about this case- I had to TELL HIM that Trayvon was out in the dark in the rain walking between the houses... and then attacked Zimmerma
He was under the impression little innocent trayvon was walking hom from choir practice or something, minding his own business.
By the time I explained that zimmerman was getting his head bashed in he was AGREEING with me too- we just need to turn this around and use it to show the black people how the media USE THEM
My cab driver was pissed at Sharpton and Jackson too
Please cue images from the original “Omega Man” with Charleston Heston and the flesh eating hordes wearing hoodies.
Live like a thug, die like a thug.

Wearing a hoodie in the newest fad to come down the pike. What a joke. The hoodie manufacturers are happy though. Isn’t capitalism great?!
Black culture — the glorification of thuggery, pimpery and whoredom. They’ve come a long way from the whips and fetters of slavery.

Have to laugh, won’t this people be funny in the face if it turns out thet Trevon was the agressor, naaa, they will just say the investigation was flawed

Trayvon Martin Circus Reveals Race Card Bankruptcy

The Trayvon Martin case is a wholly familiar one to residents of any major urban city. If you live in Chicago, New York or Los Angeles, then it’s only a matter of time until an incident between a law enforcement officer, or more rarely a civilian defending himself, and a member of a minority group flares up into a citywide grievance theater complete with angry reverends on the steps of City Hall, women with stony faces holding up banners calling for justice and a media driven debate about police tactics and racism.
This sort of thing happens with depressing regularity in cities where even the most liberal residents have to choose between police overreach and being murdered. It never leads to meaningful debate or a resolution, instead it peters out with the best actors in the grievance theater picking up money and influence, the media selling a few more papers or ads for nasal polyp relief on the drive time news and everything going back to the way it was.
The grievance theater is never really about the specific case, the specific shooting; it’s about the links between the social problems of the black community, the compromises of civil liberties necessary to keep entire cities from turning into Detroit and the inability of the media to address the sources of crime as anything but the phantoms of white racism. It’s about a black leadership that is more interested in posturing as angry activists and shaking loose some money, than in healing their own community’s problems. And so the same story repeats itself again and again without an honest dialogue or anything meaningful coming out of it.
The Grievance Theater has been going national. It’s no longer just extraordinary cases like Bernie Goetz’s Death Wish moment on the number 2 train that briefly catch hold of the national conversation. The obsessive coverage of the so-called Jena 6 case, an incident of so little internal meaning, signaled that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would no longer just be able to drive a local controversy; they now had the freedom to drive national controversies any time they wanted to.
Trayvon Martin is their big moment. It’s no longer just Grievance Theater being used to influence the political fortunes of a municipal election, the way that Howard Beach was used to bring down Mayor Koch and replace him with the execrable David Dinkins. Now it’s being used as part of a presidential campaign on a national level.
The fortunes of too many black politicians have been tied to white guilt and black rage. The worst sort of black politician channels black rage to score points with black supporters while playing on the guilt of white voters, promising to heal the social conditions that bring about that anger and protect them from its ravages. But never before has that game been played out of the Oval Office.

The article helps explain why Newark is such a fetid cesspool. It is largely composed of criminals — and those who actively support the criminal element. No hope. No change. It is Barack Obama’s America.
