Hillary Clinton Met With the Mothers of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and Others
PoliticsOn Monday, Hillary Clinton held a meeting with the mothers of four black teenagers who were killed by police and racially-motivated gun-related violence.
The two-hour meeting, which Clinton tweeted about earlier today, included the mothers of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice and Jordan Davis. The 17-year-old Martin was killed in a Florida suburb in 2012. Brown was killed by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri last year. The 12-year-old Rice was also killed by a police officer in Cleveland, and Davis was gunned down by an angry motorist in Jacksonville, Florida. Of those four, only Davis’ killer was convicted (he’s currently serving 90 years for killing a teenager over loud music).
