Killing Trayvons: An Anthology of American Violence explores the case of Trayvon Martin and examines why George Zimmerman’s not guilty verdict symbolized the racism and injustice of our current system. It is a book for all Trayvons including those unknown who have also been victims. Grappling with the issues of police violence, white supremacy, incarceration, and racial profiling; this book includes contributions from Rita Dove, Cornel West, Thandisizwe Chimurenga, Bell Hooks, Quassan Castro, June Jordan, Jesse Jackson, Patricia Williams, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Jesmyn Ward, and more.

Killing Trayvons is an essential addition to the literature on racism, state violence and political activism.
