Travon Martin Aftermath

Feeling like the day after Obama was elected...quiet at work. Scattered conversations by black male co-workers outside during smoke breaks keep me from escaping this throbbing sadness in my heart. White people are not talking about it at all, just like Obama's election. I don't understand why everyone is not talking about a grown man who shot and killed a teenager. That's what happened... without regard to race. We all talked about Jodi Arias for weeks! I want so bad to ask my white colleagues about how they felt about the outcome of the Travon Martin case but I can't. I wouldn't dare. It's about race...
