In the wake for the unjust verdict in the trail where George Zimmerman was declared “No Guity” in the murder of young 17 year old Trayvon Martin, music legend Stevie Wonder had a very strong reaction, and voiced the following proclamation durng a concert in Quebec City.
“For those who may have lost in the battle for justice, wherever that fits in any part of the world… we can’t bring them back… What we can do is we can let our voices be heard. And we can vote in our various countries throughout the world for change and equality for everybody. That’s what I know we can do.
“And I know I’m not everybody. I’m just one person. I’m a human being. And for the gift that God has given me, and from whatever I mean, I decided today that until the Stand Your Ground law is abolished in Florida, I will never perform there again. As a matter of fact, wherever I find that law exists, I will not perform in that state or in that part of the world.
“Because when I do know is that people know that my heart is of love for everyone. When I say everyone, I mean everyone. As I said earlier, you can’t just talk about it. You have to be about it. We can make change by coming together for the spirit of unity. Not in destruction, but in perpetuation of life itself.”
