Someone once told me to walk a mile in their shoes...
That someone was my father who was killed when I was 15.

I just can't comprehend what it must be like to be black in this country tonight...

Having grown up during de-segregation today must be a true embodiment of MLK's "dream".

I'm so happy, I'm so touched, I'm so humbled, I really have no words....

This is the America I've always dreamed of, and tonight I'm watching it happen.

Peace,
MZr7
