Story12
To many in the age of Obama, America had succeeded in "going beyond race", putting the divisions of the past behind us. And then 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was shot by a wannabe cop in Florida; and then 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri; and then Baltimore blew up; and then gunfire shattered a prayer meeting at a church in Charleston, South Carolina. Suddenly the entire country awakened to a stark fact: Young Black men are an endangered species.

Forgiveness is a deep personal journey, an internal shift that releases the grip of resentment and bitterness. It is about freeing oneself from the emotional weight of past hurts, not necessarily about the other person. It is a choice you make for your own well-being, a conscious decision to let go of the anger and pain that are poisoning your spirit. This internal transformation can be profound, even transformative, offering a sense of peace and freedom that transcends the actions of others.

Gordon Braxton was in his second year of college before anybody bothered to speak to him about sexual violence, despite the fact that he already knew friends and family members that had survived sexual assault. Unfortunately, this is a common experience, as many young men and boys, especially Black boys, do not have an opportunity to discuss their views on sexual violence and what role they might play in preventing it. Empowering Black Boys to Challenge Rape Culture supports the training of a rising generation by providing commentary from an experienced educator.

In The Secrets of Silence, Shannon Malone Gonzalez investigates how the policing of black women is tied to the policing of their stories. Over a period of four years, Malone Gonzalez conducted intimate life-history interviews with black women about their encounters, listening to those who had never shared their stories before, had never even been asked to, or had tried repeatedly to speak to those around them to no avail. They all described the unspoken or whispered connections in the ways officers and communities socially control black women to put them "in their place."

In February 1971, racial tension surrounding school desegregation in Wilmington, North Carolina, culminated in four days of violence and skirmishes between white vigilantes and black residents. The turmoil resulted in two deaths, six injuries, more than $500,000 in damage, and the firebombing of a white-owned store before the National Guard restored uneasy peace. Despite glaring irregularities in the subsequent trial, 10 young persons were convicted of arson and conspiracy and then sentenced to a total of 282 years in prison.

Over 225,000 African-Americans go missing every year. There are few clues and the police do very little to find them. What role does color play in this equation? Why are young, unarmed, Black men being shot down in the streets? Are the police just doing their jobs? Or is there something more horrible going on? And what about all those disappearances? No one vanishes without a trace. There are Black men and women still missing since the 1970s and 80s. How could they just disappear without a trace? Where are the cold case files?
