I AM TRAYVON MARTIN

A month ago tomorrow, a 17 year old black male was on his way home on a rainy night after going to the local 7 eleven and was followed, and murdered in cold blood. He was armed only with some skittles, his cell phone and an iced tea. The killer George Zimmerman is still on the loose today. Why you ask? Because of the state of Florida's Stand Your Ground law that allows a person to kill in self defense. But that law does not apply here. Trayvon was actively pursued for several blocks before getting into an altercation, prompted by his killer after he was advised by a 911 operator to wait for the police and not take any action on his own, and fatally shot down. This makes me outraged as a black woman who is a mother to a black man, being black in America you get no respect simply because of the color of your skin. This cretin did not follow the law and is only free today because he is a white man who murdered a black man. But I know that justice will be served. Trayvon is the same age as my oldest nephew and it pains me to know that he was killed in cold blood, make phone calls, tweet this message, write blog posts, rally, and make sure that justice is served. Here are the 911 calls and a pic of the Miami Heat rocking there hoodies in memory of a fellow Miami teen killed in a fit of hatred.

Maybelline 24 hr Tattoo: Painted Purple & Tenacious Teal

On the left is the look that I did with the Tenacious Teal color. This is after about five hours of wear. The eyeshadow that I Wore on top of it came from the Loreal H.I.P. duo in Showy. On the right I used the color tattoo in Painted Purple. That picture was taken after about seven hours of wear. The eyeshadow that I used for this look came from the Wet N Wild palette in Petal Pusher. I noticed that the teal look creased more than the other looks that I have done using the color tattoos so I will be using that one again with different eye shadows to see the outcome. Check out the products used below.

Is It True? updated with videos

So something has been re-brought (if that is a  word) to my attention, that black women are harder on their female counterparts than on black men? SHOCKER!!!!! NOT. I was perusing one of my favorite blogs and a comment caught my eye. It basically stated that we can crucify Nicki Minaj for making a dumb statement in now two of her songs about "nappy headed hoes" (see my video below that I spoke on it her first time around)yet give Chris Brown a convicted woman beater another chance. Now I am not saying that people don't deserve another chance, because they do, but why are some black women and women in general much harder on their female counterparts than men? Please discuss this below in the comment section and I may make a video about this topic and post it here.

obviously I dont feel the same about nicki as I used to, however I respect her hustle.
