He's alright!

Micah David-Cole Fletcher, who survived his attempt to intervene in the hate crime on a train in Portland, is a 21-year old pizza server and poet.

I am alive
I spat in the eye of hate and lived
This is what we must do for one another
We must live for one another
We must fight for one Mother
We must die in the name of freedom if we have to.
Luckily it’s not my turn today.

Wow. The article i read said he owed his life to a stranger, who also got involved and held a cloth to his neck to slow the bleeding. Tragic story and glad one of them survived-- no thanks to the killer :(
