In this newly published essay Sybrina Fulton, the mother of unarmed 17 year old Florida high school student Trayvon Martin, who was fatally shot in February 2012 by a man later acquitted of murder, reflects on her son's death and the changes that have and have not occurred since. She discusses her grief, her reaction to the nationwide protests and demands for justice his murder sparked and her own subsequent activism. The essay has a foreword by noted civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who represented the family of George Floyd, the unarmed Black man killed by a White Minneapolis police officer in May 2020.
