ST JOHN’S, Antigua - Late Saturday evening, many of us heard first hand when the jury declared George Zimmermnan “not guilty” of the death of Trayvon Martin.
The emotionally charged trial, which lasted about two weeks, gripped the nation and the major networks ensured that the world saw the inner workings of the American justice system.
The “not guilty” verdict touched a chord like few things could have done and once again evoked memories of the turmoil of the Civil Rights era.
