| Abstract
|
:
|
Pursuing Trayvon Martin explores the historical implications of the fatal shooting of the unarmed black teen, Trayvon Martin, by George Zimmerman, in a gated community in Sanford, Florida on February 26, 2012. Possibly the first book to explore the case, it will make an important contribution as a source providing important analyses from which later scholars might draw and which will provide a context for understanding many of the issues involved in this case. The book telescopes various themes that are important to a broad market: Race, masculinity, racial profiling, racist stereotyping, blac.
