I have no memory of anyone involved in this incident. Yet, I cry as I write this, filled with pain and despair at where our world is at, and has been at for at the very least a couple of centuries. I have a son, and so I imagined Forrest as my son, and then I imagined the other boys who shot Forrest as my children too, and I couldn't hold back any tears. Our world is in pain. We do not have to look too far back in history to know that these boys have a familial lineage stooped in genocide, slavery, and such. I'm a black man whose son is also half Mexican. I'm aware of our separate, shared, and identical histories. We as interdependent cultures and peoples need to realize how we should join hands and operate through love and stop separating ourselves into smaller and smaller groups that perpetuate our victimization. My condolences to the Keys familial and to the families of those boys who ganged up on Keys.
