Bruce Springsteen Dedicates ‘American Skin’ To The Memory Of Trayvon Martin
Performing in Limerick, Ireland, the Boss implied we’re no less racist a country than in 1999.
Bruce saw a sign earlier in the show for “American Skin” and played it later on.
“He said, ‘Where is that sign?’ and grabbed it. He then said, ‘I want to send this one out as a letter back home. For justice for Trayvon Martin’
…Some of the song’s lyrics are:
“Is it a gun, is it a knife
Is it a wallet, this is your life
It ain’t no secret
It ain’t no secret
No secret my friend
You can get killed just for living
In your American skin”
