Obama: 'Trayvon Martin Could've Been Me'

"There are very few African-American men in this country who haven't had the experience of being followed in a department store. That includes me." "...walking across the street and hearing the locks click on cars. That happens to me - at least before I was a senator." "...getting on an elevator and a woman clutching her purse, nervously and holding her breathe until she had a chance to get off. That happens often. And I don't want to exaggerate this but those sets of experiences inform how the African-American community interprets what happened one night in Florida. It is in escapable for people to bring those experiences to bare."

 - President Barack Obama

MVP- Sexy Sébastien Foucan!

Sébastien Foucan (born 27 May 1974; Paris, France) is a French freerunner of Guadeloupean descent. He is the founder of Freerunning and he is considered to be one of the early developers of Parkour. Well known for his views on the philosophy behind Parkour and Freerunning, he also stresses the need for proper training in the basics of both, not only for safety, but also for maintaining a positive public perception of the activities.

As creator of Freerunning, Sebastien Foucan has stipulated the following core values of Freerunning:

Follow your way; Always practise; Respect others in their practise; Be an inspiration for others; Be positive and look for positive environments; Respect your environment; Feel free to try other disciplines; Don't take it too seriously; The journey is more important than the goal; There is no good or bad, right or wrong, but what is important is what you learn from experiences through practise; Freerunning is not an elite discipline, but for people who love and continue to move; Channel your energy in a good way, a way to be better.
