another male black commits a crime in the park street area. it just breaks my heart that so many black men are hard working, intelligent, respectable men, but when people see a black man on the street, automatically their minds flash to the news of a black man using a gun to rob a student, or a black man ripping off money at walgreens, or a black man from chicago beating up a bus driver- but nobody imagines the UW professor I had last year, or the two students who helped me find something in the University bookstore, or the young man who helped me cross a slippery street on state street last winter. and no one in madison, ever, should forget those wonderful men that gather together to give backpacks away at demetral field before school starts! thank you men, from one citizen who appreciates the good, and pities the bad.
