This puts the lie to the claim that Hillary isn't authentic. If she weren't than how could she get endorsements like Trayvon Martin's mom and now Eric Garner's? These are women that lost their sons in such horribly violent ways, and both talk of how Hillary was able to connect to them.
"Eric Garner's mother, Gwen Carr, endorsed Hillary Clinton on Thursday in an email to campaign supporters, labeling Clinton the "only candidate right now who's talking about how we can be strategic in trying to" address police brutality."
"Carr joins a host of mothers whose children were killed in incidents with law enforcement and are part of a broader campaign strategy to solidify African-American voters who are pushing for an end to police brutality."
"Along with too many others, Eric's death has forced our country to confront the effects of police brutality. We've got to do something about the violence in our communities -- especially gun violence -- and the racial and economic injustice that's connected to it," Carr write. "Hillary seems to be the only candidate right now who's talking about how we can be strategic in trying to solve this problem. That's why I'm endorsing her for president."
In the email to supporters, Carr writes that backing Hillary Clinton is the best way to honor her son's life.
"I think all of us need to make the time to be involved in this election. With all the violence and injustice that's upon us today, we need a candidate who can move us forward -- that's Hillary," she writes.
"Carr joins Sybrina Fulton, mother of the late Trayvon Martin, and Lucia McBath, mother of Jordan Davis, who both endorsed Clinton earlier this year."

This is the best answer to the HA Goodman's of the world who claim that Hillary will lose the black vote if you just focus on her getting money from prison lobbyists-she has stopped taking such donations since October and has called out private detention centers for illegal immigrants.

Obviously the mothers who have lost sons to gun violence trust her to be the one can do something about excessive force and police brutality.
And this is where the important point about Hillary as not just wanting to do the right thing but knowing how to get it done comes in.
Recently, the African-American Flint Mayor also came out for Hillary after seeing the way HRC helped her city by forcing Rick Snyder's hand.
