"To the middle class, white, socially concerned activist emblazoned
with those slogans, you are wrong," this self-described "little white
girl" says.
She acknowledges that the slogan, "I am Trayvon" is
meant to humanize the slain black teen, but says she'd prefer for people
in her position to focus less on identifying with Martin and more on
owning up to their privilege and complicity with the system that fueled
George Zimmerman's actions and allows him to remain free.
