RCS SIDEBAR: I, too, like Jamie Foxx have been touched and changed by the story of Trayvon Martin and all the other nameless Trayvon Martin’s who have lost their lives all too quickly, violently and for no reason. We must not let Trayvon and others like him be forgotten. We must continue to be vigilante in our fight for justice!
