Musicians Do Tribute for Trayvon Martin

Trayvon Martin has impacted everyone, even R&B legends Chaka Khan, Eric Benet, Kelly Price, Kenny Lattimore and other celebrities are all working on music to tribute Martin. The song contains the lyrics, “A mama’s cryin’ ‘Cause another young man has gone and died / He’s not some statistic / He’s another awesome destiny denied.” Also,”We take it all so lightly / How did we get so ‘climatized / On the 9 o’clock news nightly / Genocide of babies / I can’t believe my eyes. All this is occurring as George Zimmerman’s lawyers dropped representing him. 

Worshippers Wear Hoodies in Trayvon Tribute

Worshippers in cities nationwide were wearing hoodies to church services Sunday to honor Trayvon Martin, a Florida teenager shot to death last month by a neighborhood watch volunteer. Trayvon was wearing a hoodie when he was killed February 26 as he walked back to his father’s fiancee’s house in Sanford, Florida, after a trip to a convenience store. Police say he was unarmed, carrying a bag of Skittles candy and an iced tea; he was shot by George Zimmerman. Zimmerman has not been charged. Hoodie marches are expected Sunday in cities across the country
