pickSuch a heartbreaking book written by Trayvon‘s parents. They both chronicle their experiences of what happened leading up to & the days after he was shot. Which was a bit slow to read since it was hard to read about their loss & grief. The last half of the book was about the movement & the trial, which was frustrating to read. Trayvon Martin‘s murder continues to highlight the racial injustice in the court systems as well as the daily inequities

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I got a lot out of this emotional read too, we still do not value life in this country the way we should…and recent events have made it even sadder to me because not only do Black Lives Matter, but with the recent school shootings I swear some don‘t think children‘s lives matter either. And as much as the system in this case wanted to portray him as a troublemaker or “thug” He was just a child, literally waking to the corner store for a snack. 2y
