"Because, unlike the Trayvon Martin story, these deaths don't allow us to point at the real problems in our society. Our problems are not despair, hatred, selfishness, violence, cruelty or greed. No, no, no. Our problem is due to something much simpler. Something we can all come together to hate. It is only this - racist white people."

The overlapping centuries old toxic environment of racist white hatred has created fertile breeding ground for those ailments you cite much of it rooted in negative self-image or self-esteem; which has been adversely shaped by relentless propaganda and circumstance.

Having said that I don't believe this column is just about Trayvon.
