i have to believe you police officer, who just killed jonathan farrell two months ago. >> and melissan important connection here between what you're saying about using the media, social media, and pushing that up into all of the media, to understand who these people are as individuals. not the criminalization of black people, particularly, a black man, in this case, a black woman, but the names. jordan davis and trayvon martin. and that impacts with what ccr, where i also used to work, and with what vince does. in a stop and frisk case, we learned about innocent vigilance systemically and repeatedly pro profiled because of the color of their skin. the social media has been powerful and what michael and others are doing is powerful because it's the informal part. >> we'll come back, because i want to talk about stop and frisk. but before we go out, i want to read this quote from the detroit writer and filmmaker, because i think she captures this sense. she writes, i thought that this is not a unique or original story. she recently organized a rally thursday, calling for justice for mcb

less than two months ago, jonathan farrell, unarmed 24-year-old, recently engaged college chemistry majoro a car accident in charlotte, north carolina. he banged on a door looking for help, i woman thought he was a burglar and called 911. three officers arrived. he ran to them. one of them shot him ten times. that officer has been charged with voluntary manslaughter. a year ago, glenda moore found herself caught in the streets of staten island when her suv stalled in the midst of hurricane sandy. according to moore's as i say itter, she ran from the car, clutching her boys. she knocked on doors, begging for help, for shelter from the storm. no one helped. the storm ripped the boys from their mother's arms. they died. these stories and many like them are part of what makes so many black americans feel like outsiders, like less than full members of society. when all these stories float in our head and even the president's americanness is challenged extensively by citizens and lawmakers. how can we not feel like unwelcome travelers in the american project? how can we not feel like as my man
