So some crypt keeper over at the Smithsonian is drooling all over his bow tie because of the possibility that he gets Trayvon Martin's iconic hoodie, and the netz are all in a tizzy over it:

    It became the symbolic way to talk about the Trayvon Martin case…It’s rare that you get one artifact that really becomes the symbol.

    Because it’s such a symbol, it would allow you to talk about race in the age of Obama.

The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.
