Doreen Lawrence, Stephen's mother, spoke at the Inaugural 18:18, Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust, Criminal Justice Lecture, yesterday.
She would hear Lord Blair admit that the UK is still failing the Black Community, from the cradle to our grave.
You already know how dignified and brave a lady Mrs Lawrence is. She says she will carry on her fight, not just for the memory of her son, but for the sake off all black people. Now, there's a fighter you need in your corner. She is that rare fighter who just keeps coming back at you, however big and strong you are. The great thing about her too, she never punches below the waist. She seeks justice fair and square. Via the law. She is a champion of our time.
Please donate to the Stephen Lawrence Trust, so that Mrs Lawrence can fulfil her dream. Er, OUR dream. That is to say, peoples of all colour and all nationality who agrees alike Socrates, that "Nothing is to be preferred before justice." That means, absolutely nothing must take second best in the eyes of God and human law when we are judged -- especially, not one's colour; because deep down, we all know, that we are all, the same. As such, justice belongs to us all. Equally.
