I also wanted to add to my collection of "Black Girl Writes" series and address some other issues that are prevalent in the black community. "I can't breathe and you know it. If I tried to resist it wouldn't be any easier. Day by day, one by one, you try to kill us off like Trayvon. You take us because of superiority, or that's what they like to call it".
