OLD: Meshell Ndegeocello - "Leviticus: Faggot" Tribute to Mark Carson: Wake Up People

137750220 This song is a tribute to a young man who was shot dead Friday night in New York's Greenwich Village; just because he refused to deny his sexuality.

Mark Carson, 32, was killed after a gay-bashing assailant asked whether the man he was with was his boyfriend. Carson didn't hesitate and told the man yes, according to reports. Elliot Morales, 33, called Carson a 'f*****' and a 'queer' when he confronted him and his 31-year-old partner on a busy street on Friday night. - Daily Mail

Meshell Ndegeocello (born Michelle Lynn Johnson) herself identifies as a bisexual woman who speaks strongly against homophobic violence and hate around the world. This video shows what millions are going through daily; you vs society vs family vs friends. Each year millions of men and woman lose their lives because of their sexual preference. This doesn't only affect their families deeply but also affect our future generation who feels its NOT okay to be themselves. Wake up people.

Hey faggot, better run, learn to run, 'cause daddy's home. Daddy's sweet little boy just a little too sweet. And, every night the man showed the faggot what a real man should be. But, the man and the faggot will never see. For so many can't even perceive a real man. Tell me. It's not that the faggot didn't find a woman, fine and beautiful. He admired, desired her desire. (Wanted love from a strong hand). The faggot wanted the love of a man.

Rest in peach and power: Mark Carson
