Chris Brown Dons Hoodie For Trayvon Martin

 Chris Brown Dons Hoodie For Trayvon Martin

·  Obama spoke for the first time on the killing of Trayvon Martin, 17, who was fatally shot last month as he walked home after buying candy 

·  The President called the death a 'tragedy' and said, 'If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon


Chris Brown has worn a hoodie in solidarity for slain Florida teen Trayvon Martin. Tweeting a picture with a group of men wearing hoodies Tuesday, Brown wrote "Trayvon Martin."

Brown is one of many celebrities who have reacted to the troubling murder of the Florida teen shot walking to his father's home in Sanford, Florida.

A song was released Tuesday in support of Martin. Led by Chaka Khan, the re-recording of "Super Life," with the message "Fear Kills. Love Heals," featured Eric Benet, Luke James, Kelly Price and more.

NBA athletes and churches have also paid respect to Trayvon Martin donning hoodies in solidarity during games and services over the weekend.


Monday marked the one-month anniversary of Trayvon Martin's killing. The unarmed black teenager was shot dead by neighbourhood watchman George Zimmerman, who claims he shot the boy in self-defence under Florida's controversial "stand your ground" law. Zimmerman has not been arrested.

Four weeks on, the story continues to grip America as new details dribble out daily and questions remain unanswered.

 What we say is .... where is JUSTICE for this young life taken. The FACT is when you take a life surly you should face the Law to decide, WHY is this man NOT facing the Law?? Our heart goes to the family of Trayvon Martin who sadly lost his life on his way home at such a young age of 17 for what looks like being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
