Trayvon Martin's About
[✎]Trayvon Martin was a seventeen year old American teenager who was shot dead by George Zimmerman. The murder of Trayvon was highly publicized by the media, owing to the racial layer attached to it. Martin was an athletic, bright young man who was aiming for a future in the aviation industry and wanted to become a pilot. He had no criminal record. He was unarmed when he was shot by a neighborhood watch member George Zimmerman. Following the trial, Zimmerman was released from prison sometime later, which gave rise to a heated debate over racial profiling and discrimination. The increasing pressure from all sides forced the police to arrest George, who was tried for murder. He was ultimately declared not guilty. On July 13, 2013, he was charged of second-degree murder, while in his defense, George said that the murder was an act of self- defense. The case brought out the racial intolerance that the US has been a victim of for a very long time. Many celebrities raised their voices in support of the victim's parents. Several petitions were started, which led to President Obama personally intervening into the matter.
