Black. Lives. Matter. This three-word phrase has grown into an international social justice movement that stemmed from the shooting death of the teenaged Trayvon Martin. From Reverend Al Sharpton pressing the injustice non-stop on PoliticsNation back in 2012, to today - Colin Kaepernick's inspirational "take-a-knee" protest during NFL games, Trayvon's legacy is STILL felt, but unfortunately, the sad reality is black people find themselves everyday still trying to prove that their lives really do matter. In this episode, Ed Lover speaks on the phone with Trayvon's father, Tracy Martin, as we gear up for another episode of the docu-series "Rest In Power: The Trayvon Martin Story," which airs tonight at 10 PM EST and streams on ParamountNetwork.com. Enjoy.
