What do Troy Anthony Davis, Kenneth Foster, Jr., Genarlow Wilson, the Jena 6, and defenseless pitbulls have in common?  They're all expendable.  But, most of us will never hear of or concern ourselves with the unjust sentences and outcomes of these young black men.

The dogs, however, have been guanteed primetime and continued outrage for their sickening hangings and electrocutions.

All God's Creatures Great and Small.  But not Black.
