When I see a young black man

When I see a young black man, I’m going to think that this could be another James Shaw, Jr. His spontaneously heroic act got national attention for a short while, then faded. But not for me.
Heroes of this sort don’t linger in the news because we are much more interested in being entertained than being challenged to live better lives. So I’m going to stay on the lookout for the overlooked heroes who can teach me something.
