    Suspicion Nation: The Inside Story of the Trayvon Martin Injustice and Why We Continue to Repeat It , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 510min
    A provocative examination of race, gun laws, and violence that exposes how the state of Florida bungled the Trayvon Martin case through new interviews and revelations about the trial.Many thought the election of our first African-American president put an end to the conversation about race in this country, and that America had moved into a post-racial era of equality. Then, on the night of February 26, 2012, a black seventeen-year-old boy walking to a friend’s home carrying only his cell phone, candy, and a fruit drink was shot and killed by a neighborhood watch coordinator.The public, especially African-American journalists and activists, clamored for the media to pay attention to the killing of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman. The July 2013 trial of Zimmerman for murder captivated the nation, as did his eventual and shocking acquittal. Any belief that we lived in a post-racial America was shattered.In her provocative and landmark audiobook Suspicion Nation, Lisa Bloom, who covered the trial from gavel to gavel, posits that none of this was a surprise: Our laws, culture, and blind spots created the conditions that led to Trayvon Martin’s death and made George Zimmerman’s acquittal by far the most likely outcome. A trial lawyer herself, Bloom details how the “winnable case was lost” through new in-depth interviews of key trial participants. The only nonwhite juror tells her story of loneliness and isolation during the trial. The state’s medical examiner describes a scientific theory he wanted to raise during his testimony but could not. Rachel Jeantel, the state’s star witness and the last person to speak to Trayvon Martin, reveals how poorly the state prepared her to testify and what went through her mind when she was on the stand. And a new examination of Trayvon’s school suspensions raises troubling questions about racial profiling against the teenager at his own high school.And the injustice continues, as more shootings, ungekürzt.

She was even mocked in the now-famous children's skip rope rhyme which went: "Lizzie Borden took an ax - Gave her mother 40 whacks - When she saw what she had done - Gave her father 41." Perhaps the truth lies in the key testimonies presented at the time of her trial. For the first time presented here in this easy to listen dialog format, is the full transcript of The Trial of Lizzie Borden. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: W.B. Ward.
