(NNPA)Do you feel George Zimmerman is a racist? Make a fashion statement to let the world know how you feel. The issue of race in America was clearly illustrated in the attention African-Americans paid to the Zimmerman trial. Nowadays, Black Americans are no longer asking, rather, theyre demanding Justice for Trayvon Martin.
If Zimmerman thought hed live out his days as a happy camper, hes sadly mistaken. The Justice for Trayvon Martin campaign has morphed into an enterprise thats not going anywhere, anytime soon, especially if Parks & Crump, attorneys at law, have any say in the matter. Parks & Crump, which specializes in personal injury cases, happens to be one of the nations top Black law firms. Expert in law and civil rights, the firm is the reason that [Trayvon] was packing a bag of Skittles and a can of Arizona Iced Tea sticks in your mind.
Partners Darryl Parks and Benjamin Crump have been the most visible of the firms six-member team. Thanks largely to Crumps legal position and activist efforts, the Martin case has prompted a flurry of marches and rallies around the nation, merited comment from President Barack Obama and garnered the attention of the U.S. Department of Justice.
The Parks & Crump camp helped to create a Justice for Trayvon industry consisting of protest paraphernalia that includes hoodies, sweatshirts and bumper stickers. The law firm proved to be instrumental in establishing the Trayvon Martin Foundation, with donations totaling an estimated $5 million.
Crump is a principal with the Tallahassee-based firm. He was initially contacted by Tracy Martins cousin. His cousin, a Miami attorney, happened to be familiar with Crumps civil rights work in Florida. The firm is headquartered in the state capital, and Crump is well connected and has been recognized by the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund for his enduring pursuit of justice. The firms receipts from both city and state wrongful death lawsuits exceed $10 million.
Crump also collaborates with Orlando attorney Natalie Jackson. Crump and Jackson hired media communications expert Ryan Julison, to make sure that their strategy worked and the word got out. Then, they staged news conferences in which Trayvons parents talked about their loss. Florida media outlets began to notice. Shortly thereafter, they contacted Rep. Corrine Brown, D-Fla., to help convince authorities to release 911 tapesrecordings that brought the case to the attention of the national media. The team applied pressure on authorities by organizing a series of rallies and worked with national civil rights figures such as Al Sharpton. Both Sharpton and Jesse Jackson were the first to arrive in Sanford to participate in various rallies and meetings.
As the case against Zimmerman moves from one court to another, Trayvons family members say they need financial assistance to ensure that justice is served. Theyve been directing donations toward a criminal justice advocacy foundation in the deceased teenagers name.
The Trayvon Martin Foundation was established to keep this issue alive. Its the vehicle through which Trayvons parents and their attorneys travel and work to create awareness of how violent crime impacts families of victims, and to provide support for the bereaved families. The foundation seeks to advocate that crime victims and their families not be ignored in the discussions about violent crimes, to increase public awareness of all forms of racial, ethnic and gender profiling and educate youth on conflict resolution techniques.
Zimmermans acquittal has sparked protests throughout the country. If you move from spectator to protester, you too, can make a fashion or activist statement when you purchase a hoodie, sweatshirt or sticker to demand Justice for Trayvon. The cost of protesting isnt cheap. The movement has enough money to move the case forward but sales of campaign materials and receipts are vital. Analysts say it will cost at least $5 million at each rung to move the case up the legal ladder. To make donations to move this case forward, contact: trayvonmartinfoundation.org.
It looks as though the negro community has forgotten that they, along with the homosexuals, are a minority. Things have gotten so bad and the injustices against the majority piled so high that the regime that replaces this one may last quite a long time.
In that case it would appear that this grinning imbecile of a phony president may have regressed the negro to a point where the advances may never be regained in several lifetimes.
If you’re not a part of the solution, there’s good money to be made in prolonging the problem.

Name the analysts who place this exorbitant price tag on the process.
Only the dumbest people could not recognize this profiteering. The Venn Diagram of "dumbest people" and "Trayvon supporters" has a lot of crossover, though.

Thats really good!
He’s a master racebaiter.
The racial parasite who call themselves the martins will feed off their own as much as they can.
That is what racial parasites do, and their victims will help them in that feeding as much as they possible can, because they are just that damn stupid.
I thought libs did not like bullying.
Who didn't see that coming.
Next these money hungry parents will be asking for $10M to help the DOJ do their investigation.
So..... how much of a ‘cut’ does this author get for promoting the donations to the GIMME MO MONEY FOUNDATION ?
are the parents trying to claim loss income?
Can a street thug make 5 mil in a lifetime?
He had liver damage by drinking “lean” anyways so it was likely he was going to die or at least need a new liver by age 30.
Anyone truly wanting “Justice for Trayvon” should know that the dead can’t be prosecuted for their crimes.
It's one of today's slickest rackets. Obama's half-brother started the tax-exempt "Barack H. Obama Foundation" based in Kenya and Virginia to "build homes for widows and orphans" in Africa. There's not a shred of evidence that one single such home has been built...but the Obama bro is evidently making a good living off the foundation as he flies hither and yon on behalf of his milk-cow, using Baraq's name and undoubtedly his political donor list to keep feeding the cow.
The Martin couple will also live high off the cow as they unceasingly bombard us with white-guilt rhetoric, sob stories and hate-America propaganda as long as they can successfully milk their foundation cash-cow to finance their always-on-the-go, lucrative life-style of speaking engagements and public appearances for profit.
Left-wing foundations have a tendency to hang around for a long-time before they are dissolved, so we can expect no relief from the barrages of the Martins and their ilk before they reluctantly are forced to moo-ve on to greener pastures.

It could make them millions
Sadly, they probably will, and will further divide the country in the process...which just further enables them in their wretched trade.
The simple truth however is out there, and not hard to find.
Trayvon Martin made a conscience decision to assault George Zimmerman. Apparently because he did not like the way Zimmerman was looking at him. He broke his nose, knocked him to the ground, and then climbed on top and was pummeling Zimmerman. Zimerman had the injuries and the scuff marks consistant with that.
Trayvon Martin had the bruises to his knuckles and scuff marks on his knees consistant with his part in the assault. His only other injury was a single bullte wound, shot at close range and the bullet traveling up through his chest.
The fact is, until the point of Martin's assault, no crime had been committed by either side. None.
As Martin continued to attack Zimmerman, and as Zimmerman called out for help in a terrified voice, he ultimately came to the conclusion that he was apt to die at the hands of Trayvon Martin.
At that point, the 6'2", healthy and strong youth was a potential murder, and an active criminal assaulting a citizen. Plain and simple. Whether he was 16, 24, 38 or 50. Does not matter. George Zimmerman was in danger of losing his life.
So he used his gun and shot Martin dead.
Classic case of self defense. That's all this is, and all it ever was.
Does not matter if Zmmerman was white, black, brown, red or yellow. Does not matter f MArtin was balck, white, red, brown or yellow.
One individual person was beating another individual person mercilessly and ended up being shot for it.
George Zimmeman is not guilty, he is innocent of any wrong doing.
For stating these direct, and simple truths, the race baiters, leftists, rabal rousers, etc. will shrilly call me racist, a right wing bigot, etc., etc. when nothing could be further from the truth.
That is the issue. The truth and getting it out there for all to see and understand. What they do with it is their affair...but it does not, and ever will, change the simple and direct facts of the case.
Trayvon’s mother sure likes her kid a lot more now that he’s a brand instead of a teen.
Yes but they are a very vocal minority and a loud one. Combined with with the dumbed downed , pugnacious ‘’victim culture’’ and grievance industry that exists today they will be heard all across the country and given plenty of air time on the statist media like CNN, NBC , MSNBC and all the other Democrat party propaganda organs. Such is the legacy of Martin Luther King and the Civil Rights movement. Nothing but race monger’s, poverty pimps, civil rights ‘’activists’’ and media whores.
And it will continue until a right-wing government from the top down takes control.
They won’t rest until Zimmerman is either dead or in jail. I just hope that he can hold out, and not do something foolish like taking his own life.
Thank you. That was my first thought. Apparently this is standard practice in other setups as well - the rich set up a "trust" or some such, then put their kids in as six-figure "officers" and write the thing off as a "charity".
