A lot of media wanted to cover and did cover the story of the Pensacola father who was charged with attempted murder after the police bust into his house at 4:45 in the morning for a search warrant for some clothes and electronics. His baby son was also injured.
But it was the power of the Black media and @rolandsmartin that cared enough to lift up the family's GoFundMe and not extract a news story to lead the news. Roland and his audience single handily took the family's GoFundMe from $935 to 8,803 and counting in less than 10 minutes.
That is the power of the Black media and having Black journalists in place to tell our stories. Thank you @rolandsmartin and to Roland's audience.
