I was born in Charleston, South Carolina. I wouldn't say that is my home town though. As a military brat we moved, a lot. Once we left the, military life, we settled down in Flint, Michigan.

My story all starts one night when my fiancée and I were heading to dinner to meet up with some friends. Little did I know we were going to be convincing me to go on a cruise to the Caribbean. Now I’m by all means a home-body. I don't like to be out of my comfort zone and being in a large boat in the middle of the ocean is defiantly out of my comfort zone. So eventually they convince me that it's a good idea and I get to work on getting my passport since I never planned on leaving the lower 48.…

The police were acquitted by a predominantly white jury (Maurantonio, N. 2014). Then there’s people in the present like Walter Scott, a black man who was shot on April 4, 2015, in North Charleston, South Carolina for a non-functioning brake light. Walter Scott was shot by Michael Slager, a white North Charleston police officer. Slager was charged with murder after a video surfaced contradicting his police report. The video showed him shooting…
