Heres a video documenting how the U.S. Dept. of Justice helped the Dream Defenders a bogus student group run by paid activists with links to ACORN and Occupy target George Zimmerman and the Sanford police chief in April, 2012. It includes excerpts from an 82-minute audio recording of an April 19, 2012, meeting headed up by the DOJ official.................
Highlights:
1. The DOJ official called Dream Defenders a student group and referenced the students talking at the meeting. (5:45 to 6:10) Yet none of the three members of Dream Defenders who were at the event is a student. Gabriel M. Pendas graduated from FSU in 2005. Vanessa Jennifer Baden graduated from FSU in 2007. Nelini Stamp never attended college. (10:20 to 11:00)
2. Far from being a student group, the organization headed up by Pendas and two other non-students (including Stamp) is Dream Defenders, Inc., a Florida corporation. (6:50 to 7:00; incorporation details here).
3. Given the background of the three people who appeared on its behalf, there is reason to believe that Dream Defenders is an astroturf front group funded by the lawyers for Trayvon Martins family and/or ultra-left-wing big money sources. All three have long worked as paid political agitators.
Stamp currently works for an ACORN front group (the Working Families Party) and was a leader of the nationwide Occupy movement. During the April, 2012, Dream Defenders march she said that the protest was bigger than Trayvon because we cant take this anymore the rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer. (9:55 to 11:30)
Pendas has spent the last decade, starting in college, working as a paid community organizer. (6:40 to 6:50; 9:40 to 9:55).
Baden began working as an organizer (with Pendas) in college (8:50 to 9:00) and has held at least three organizing jobs. As first reported yesterday on Breitbart.com by Lee Stranahan, for at least two years (2005-06) Baden worked as Head of Activism at Parks & Crump, the law firm currently representing Trayvon Martins family (as Stranahan details, she focused her paid activism work on a racially charged case involving the death of another African-American teenager, which provided the playbook for the Trayvon Martin case, and at one point she apparently helped lead a mob that blocked rush-hour traffic in Floridas capitol).
4. Even the name of this so-called student group is bogus a ripoff of an animated childrens TV series which premiered in 2011. The original is much more entertaining than the ripoff launched a year later. (18:00 to 19:00)
BONUS (added 7/17): It turns out that in a 2012 interview available on YouTube, Baden admitted that the Trayvon Martin protest was an astroturf operation growing out of her work with the Parks & Crump law firm. More on that here.
Well looky there — it turns out to be a Small World afterall.

We spoke with Adner Marcelin, founder of the Justice for Trayvon Martin Facebook Group, and one of the students involved in the rally. The protest was arranged by The Justice For Trayvon Martin Coalition, which is affiliated with the Student Coalition for Justice. These groups started with students from Florida State University, Tallahassee Community College, and Florida A&M University, then expanded to other people in the country and around the world.
