There Are No Two Greater Heroes Than Trayvon Martin’s Parents! By Michael Skolnik
The Global Grind - The World According to Hip-Hop ^ | July 13, 2014 | Michael Skolnik, editor-in-chief and political director to Russell Simmons

I remember growing up and always hearing my parents and their friends talk about one pivotal moment in their lives. They remembered exactly where they were at that point. Exactly who told them the news. Exactly how they felt once it all sunk in. When President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, everyone who was alive during that time remembers.

One year ago, today, was our generation’s moment. It was late on a Saturday night. Some of us were out to dinner. Some of us were home with our families. Some of us were still shopping. Some of us were driving in our cars. But, no matter where we were, we all heard and we all will always remember. Shortly after 10PM Eastern Standard Time, after 16 hours of deliberation, a six member, all-female jury acquitted George Zimmerman of murdering 17 year old Trayvon Martin. Silence. Quiet. And then some tears. Rolled down my face as I sat in my…

While the sales at the Million Hoodie March fell flat we expect better things for the Million Hoodie August.

With every Hoodie sold we will give away a coupon for the Dell Comics version of The Guns of August — true stories of death and mayhem from the streets of Chicago.

The main character in the story is a hoodie-wearing candy-eating iced tea drinking super hero armed with big fists.

Any luck finding a producer for Our TV series?
The one in which young Trayvon's Posse struggles to deliver Meals on Wheels, Bibles, and medicines to sick and shut-in elderly church ladies, heroically running a vicious gauntlet of murderous automatic gunfire and RPG attacks from a bloodthirsty white gang in Confederate uniforms?

I had scouted some wonderfully cheap locations in Baghdad, but casualties in Chicago are much higher. I think we should go there for the reality aspect. Many experienced and well-armed extras available, too!

Working Title: "Chicago Hope." (No Gangstas were injured or suffered a loss of self esteem during this production.) Script by Maya Angelou and Fifty Cent.

Watch it, Bogey. Uncle Chip and I are also Board Members of the Trayvon Martin Foundation. Somehow they never call us for meetings, but every time we sell a Trayvon Hoodie, or a Jeantel Personal Grooming Makeup and Hair Care Kit, they gets a hefty royalty check.

BTW, send us your size and an MO for $49.95 and we'll send you a Trayvon Hoodie. Don't go Polar Bear Hunting without it! The Jeantel Kit also makes a nice gift for that special someone in your life.

Franchises available.

Trayvon Martin’s father is a Freemason Master in charge of his own FLA district.

Don’t believe me, folks?

Google him to see the ‘gang hood’ father in his Freemason attire during Freemason rituals.

Lots of Masonic players and imagery surrounding recent made-for-MSM ‘shootings.’

Wow, isn't that Trayvon's father, Tracy Martin the Freemason Master in charge of his own FLA district?

Why didn't MSM ever mention this?

Poor Trayvon was killed while walking home with a can of I-T and Skillets. He was a well behaved angel of a child who was raised by loving parents. If every black family modeled themselves after the Martin's, all their troubles would disappear.
