We send our love and support to Trayvon’s parents — Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin — and we grieve with them and the countless other families of Black children who have been killed just for being Black.[2]
In this time of national sorrow, let’s turn our rightful frustration into
action and grow a movement to hold the criminal justice system that fails Black Americans every day[3] accountable.
Since the beginning, the Department of Justice has closely monitored the
state’s case against George Zimmerman, and the DOJ can still bring charges against Trayvon’s killer. Please join us in calling on Attorney General Eric Holder to bring federal civil rights charges against Zimmerman, and help us strengthen our efforts to end racial profiling and the violence it creates: http://act.colorofchange.org/signup/zimmerman_acquittal/?referring_akid=2991.762263.FAG2k6
