They jumped on my Op and never read it. They trashed her or hailed her, yet never read the Gawd damn Op.
I find that sad.
Here are some of her words and they break my heart.
This is what people power can do, this is what protesting can do, said Mendonca.
The march had members from different strata of San Diego society. It brought together, white, black and brown. It also brought together working class, students and middle class people.
Before the march, the protesters held a die in that lasted 11 minutes. Each minute represented each time Eric Garner said he could not breath, before he died.
It is wrong that people have been killed all over the country. Minorities who are unarmed, to sit at home and not do anything about it, and not participate, if you are not being part of the solution, you are being part of the problem.
