George Zimmerman Found Not Guilty in Death of Trayvon Martin
These are links I found helpful in processing this story tonight.
Legal stuff from Slate and The Atlantic.
A pastoral letter from ELCA Presiding Bishop Mark Hanson, from March 2012, along with a letter he signed along with other denominational leaders from Churches Uniting in Christ (.pdf).
Michael Skolnick has been a must-follow on Twitter on this and other hot-button topics.
Cord Jefferson on what it means to be a young black man in America.
Pastor Steve Jerbi of All Peoples Church in Milwaukee, with a great reflection on privilege, very helpful in my context.
