Trayvon Martin & Emmett Till

The death of Emmett Till brought sadness to many people. He was innocent and he was only fourteen. By flirting with an older woman we shouldn't have gotten tortured. This might or might not be a racist murder, but since he's only fourteen, and the civil rights movement was going on, it was believed that the murderers were racist.
The deatth of Trayvon Martin was just a casual murder. Supposedly, The cop had said that trayvon assaulted him, so he shot him. At first, the cop said that he looked suspicious and that he had a hood, and it looked like he had something in his pocket.
