Has times changed? or are we still fighting the same rhetorical questions, that videos, newscasters, social medias and the public, has brought to our attention, over the past twenty years. Its been uttered by citizens, time and time again, that the justice system has failed them. People are furious and outraged, to what might have caused a neighborhood watchman to shoot a seventeen year old teenager. Hundreds of people took to the streets, their frustrations, anger and years of be outrage, so their voices could be heard around the country. Trayvon Martin's parent's Tracy Martin, and Sybrina Fulton,
held a Million Hoodie March in Union in New York, in an effort to fight for those before them and possibility after them. .Hundreds of people were marching in New
York City in memory of Trayvon Martin.What makes this case so significant, it represents one of the law that is widely expressed in Florida, which is Stand Your Own Ground Law , which the people are questioning, since the police department failed to comment on. What does this signify? Is this the beginning of a unity amongst the people, to fight for something much bigger than themselves, or is this just another short lived bark, that they will go down in history, that will sprak a moment, but not a movement? Only time will tell. Peace and Love Y'all
