He was yanked out of his bed …
He was forced to crawl on his hands and knees like a dog …
He endured the infliction of hard stones …
He was beat down by racial slurs …
He endured torture by his fellow-man…
He was alone with no one to turn to …
He reached to a breaking point …
He found no other resolve but to dissolve his own life …
He was only 19 years of age … – – – – Who was he? – – – – He was an American just like you and I …He was an Asian American man – a fellow friend …He was a proud American soldier …
He was the son of our mothers and fathers from generation’s past …
He is one of us and we are a part of him … His name is Danny Chen No friends of ours should ever endure this kind of ‘hate’. No friends of ours should ever feel alone.
