President Obama: Trayvon Martin Made America Confront Its Original Sin | NYT Opinion

- Ten years ago, Trayvon Martin was fatally shot by George Zimmerman, who perceived the unarmed teenager as a threat. He would later be acquitted of all charges in the killing, arguing successfully that he had acted in self defense. These events reignited the conversation about race and justice in America. "The contemporary civil rights movement unfolded directly in response to the murder of Trayvon Martin,” says Henry Louis Gates Jr. in a new Opinion video. Former President Barack Obama argues that Trayvon's death "was the start of America looking inward and in fits and starts coming to terms with what has always been our original sin."

Whether it's reporting on conflicts abroad and political divisions at home, or covering the latest style trends and scientific developments, New York Times video journalists provide a revealing and unforgettable view of the world. It's all the news that's fit to watch.
Mr. Zimmerman is not a good person and he’s not a hero. Zimmerman also isn’t a murderer and if Mr. Martin did not assault Zimmerman we wouldn’t have to argue over who screamed louder or if Martin reached for Zimmerman firearm. In America you are innocent until proven guilty and the evidence was on Zimmerman side. If you assumed guilt over this case simply based of a Hispanic man taking the life of a young black man then you are no better than the people who are responsible for getting a disproportionate amount of innocent black men imprisoned for crimes they did not commit. It’s also extremely terrifying to watch our presidents spread misinformation, lies, and stoke the flames of division and civil unrest.
We can't know if Zimmerman is or was a good person or not. But everything else you said is spot on. Unfortunately, reasonableness is lost on too many people, including Obama.
Whether you think Zimmerman is a terrible person or not, why are you using edited call audio that removes relevant context? People got fired for this 10 years ago

The audio was edited. Zimmerman only said "he looks black" after he was asked "black, white, or hispanic?". This is the whole problem with the Trayvon story. The media pushed a false narrative that a big, racist white wannabe cop shot a black kid because he was wearing a hoodie and walking around in a white neighborhood, when in reality a 5'8" half Latino saw a 6'2" guy wandering around in the rain who looked like he was casing units in a multicultural community that had experienced multiple break-ins, and he only fired his weapon after he was attacked and was being beaten to death.

This video plays the deceptively edited call!!! The infamous doctored audio recording that got two people fired from NBC and launched a lawsuit. Look at about 47 seconds into the video, it plays the faked Zimmerman 911 call, edited to make him look racist:
Zimmerman: Hey, we’ve had some break-ins in my neighborhood and there’s a real suspicious guy. This guy looks like he’s up to no good or he’s on drugs or something. He looks black.
Here were the actual words of the original call:
Zimmerman: This guy looks like he’s up to no good or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around looking about.
Dispatcher: Okay and this guy is he white, black or Hispanic?
Zimmerman: He looks black.

Both were unfairly targeted for defending themselves.

You're blaming Trayvon Martin even though George Zimmerman had no business following anyone down an alley. He had no business following anyone, especially after the 9-11 operator made explicitly clear that he should not follow Martin. I seriously doubt you would be arguing the same if a black man followed a white boy down an alley and then murdered him. I'll only concede this to you: I don't agree with the prosecutor charging Zimmerman with first degree murder. This was obviously second degree murder.
@@alexh5725 Trayvon shouldn't have been followed. However, Trayvon shouldn't have turned around and attacked him. The retaliation is what doomed him.

@@thelifeofyahya , no the state engages in behavior when you break the law. which george floyd has done most of his adult life. george floyd is a literal career criminal who has had 8 different prison stints. he wasnt some innocent choir boy suddenly harassed by cops. he was wanted for another crime this time counterfeit money. the cops arrest him, put him in the squad car then due to him being high on a multitude of drugs, complains he cant breath, the cops bring him out of the car so he can "breathe" better but he start arguing and fighting and is put on a hold that is taught by police academies across america. the official city autopsy found that he did not die due to the knee in the back of the head but due to his pre existing heart conditions and all the drugs in his system.
the truth isnt bigotry. its the truth. insidious describes blaming a rare case (george floyd) and treating it as some out of control epidemic when reality is the complete opposite and that people like floyd who are the ones causing the crime epidemic that you see today that is the real epidemic. you're being played with son. you are being used by liberal/progressive white media while they gain money and power while you get even more lost and confuse blaming the wrong thigs in life.

He said, *"he's on drugs or something"* implying Trayvon was acting odd. What is wrong with Zimmerman saying that? No one knows how Trayvon Martin was acting, whether it was perfectly normal, odd, fine or otherwise. Zimmerman's *perception* of the way Trayvon was acting isn't evil or hateful, necessarily. In his very next sentence, he said, "It's raining, and he's just walking around looking about", which struck Zimmerman as odd. We also now know Trayvon was talking on the phone utilizing a headset to talk on the phone. It may have looked to Zimmerman like Trayvon was talking to himself (also odd). It could have been a hundred other things that gave the *impression* that Trayvon was acting weird or "on drugs or something". The smh is coming from people who can't or won't think their way through a controversial and divisive subject.

The title is wrong. America's Original Sin is Classism, not Racism. The first Africans (Angolans) brought to the American colonies in 1619 arrived as indentured servants, alongside other indentured servants from Ireland, England, and Scotland. Like the others, they were eventually freed, including Anthony Johnson, who became a successful landowner who supervised both black and white indentured servants. Johnson, not a white man, owned the first legally defined slave in the United States, another black man permanently enslaved as a penalty for attempting to escape his indenture prematurely. The first race laws were not passed for 40 years after America's colonization. Class oppression - exploitation of the poor regardless of race - preceded race oppression and class oppression. It is still the main crisis confronting the country today. This is obvious to anyone who has ever experienced poverty, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, what-have-you. A rich black man has infinite opportunities never afforded to a poor white man. If you think Will Smith Jr is disadvantaged to the average West Virginian white, I have a bridge to sell you in Florida.
Racism is of course very real and causes significant additional hardships to African Americans in particular. But today, corrupt, cynical neoliberals like President Obama are responsible for far more human despair, particularly in the African American community, than racists. Bailing out bankers, subsidizing insurance companies, while their voters go bankrupt from healthcare and housing costs. People like Obama want to divert America's attention from classism to racism, so they can maintain their class based privileges. As long as working and middle class Americans are forced to talk about race, they are denied a discussion over their material class welfare.
As to the event discussed in this video: I do believe Travyon Martin would still be alive if he were white. But Zimmerman was found not guilty, and Mr Martin would also be alive if he hadn't approached, tackled, and began beating Mr Zimmerman based on his initial suspicious of him. Zimmerman did not approach Mr Martin - he followed him at a distance while reporting on him. That is annoying but does not justify aggravated assault. Mr Martin made a decision to approach and attack him. He could have just stopped and forcefully said "stop following me sir, I live in this neighborhood," or even called the police on him. America needs to get real and hold both itself and its elected leaders responsible. No more false excuses or narratives.
Racism was developed as part of the process of empire, both by the Spanish and the British.
The idea of whiteness conferring a different legal status originated in Jamaica (originally it was whether one was Christian or not). The concept spread rapidly to a lot of places, including the other British colonies in what is now the USA.
So classism and racism were present at the founding.
And honestly, the US was created by ethnic cleansing of native people, too. So it's racism all the way down.
@@grmpEqweer why decouple class from race? The Civil War, the bloodiest war for American life, was no more solely about class than it was solely about race. It's asinine to assert otherwise.

It's not solely about either. However, those are two separate things that interact with each other.
For instance, because of systemic racism, black people tend to be poorer.

Make the Pension funds have to pay the settlements. Hit them where it hurts.
You do know that 'qualified immunity' doesn't mean that cops can just do anything they want at any time, with no consequences, right? It means that they can't be held personally liable for actions taken while representing the state, if they were acting in good faith. Like, if someone intentionally made it seem like they had a lethal weapon and rushed a cop, when in reality that person was unarmed, and the cop shoots them dead, that person's family can't sue them. Or, if someone does have a weapon, and the police deploy a taser and they topple over and crack their skull, the individual officer can't be sued.
Honestly, if we get rid of qualified immunity, we should just get rid of police at that point. Because if they could be held personally liable for doing the things necessary to protect themselves and society, they would never have a direct confrontation with a suspect ever again.
What role did qualified immunity play in this case exactly?

I still don't think that captures what happened. At a time when germs and microbiology was unknown, the first contacts that spread disease were not deliberate. Had the disease exchange gone the other way, I wouldn't be accusing indigenous people of some original sin. But we absolutely bury the moral dilemmas that the Spaniards argued about in their later treatment of the remnants of that initial genocide.

In 2002/2003 rapper Ludacris was dropped from a Pepsi endorsement deal because of a Fox News Led Boycott. "Hip hop is no match for you mainstream America" -Bill O'reilly fox news on Pepsi dropping rapper Ludacris
At the same time Beyonce ran with the Pepsi endorsement.
A few years Later during the Zimmerman trial Trayvon was polarized by the same news network that polarized Rapper Ludacris.
A few years later after that and a few videos of black people being killed we had a Pepsi sponsored Hip Hop Superbowl halftime show That people rejoiced on as a "coming of age" or a "social justice moment"
Fox News has the highest ratings of any news network.
I believe somewhere in this you might be able to find the examples of social conditioning.
Ludacris wouldn't work for the "middle America" subconscious at the time.
It makes the difference when a Police is making a split decision or an Employer is hiring an applicant or a jury is making a decision of guilty or not guilty when "hip hop" is a determining factor
Respect to the late Richard Pryor who is Ludacris's uncle
The NewYork Times is a JOKE !

Hey look it's Barack Obama the king of airstrikes.
and causes of the current crisis in Ukraine
You are using that as an excuse to withdraw from any proper communication with Obama and half of the world. By ignorance you shield yourself from any proper reflection or thoughts to be considered. Start talking about the topic and the arguments themselves, with all the vigor you can muster!
He was one of the few politicians fiercely opposing the war in Iraq, which after the war in Vietnam was by far the most bloody american war with the most airstrikes on civilians. President Bush ordered that war on the most untrustworthy of premises. Yes, there were airstrikes during Obama's presidency. Yes, there were also civilian casualties. But with all the military involvement that he inherited, it was hard to not make these mistakes. Many of these were mistakes at lower levels of hierarchy as well, which of course a president also always shares responsibility for. But blaming Obama as a president of airstrikes is simply delusional and buying into all the right-wing or islamist propaganda that is out there. I am absolutely for investigations and open discussions about american war crimes during all presidencies. I think that there is too much ignorance towards their victims and what fear it strikes into the minds of many people next to them. But dismissing a president who is trying to do a better job than the warmonger before him, succeeding 90% in that, is ill-advised. Yes blame him, but with measure. Obama is about much more than airstrikes. Don't let these airstrikes be an excuse to not take part in an honest conversation. If Obama has any particular strength in my opinion, then it is his ability to be open to conversation with a very large variety of people from all over the world.
@@nilsp9426 you are absolutely correct. He was very open to dialogue and being flexible with people all over the world, like Putin.
Clearly well-behaving does not save your life. Went to the store, bought what he wanted, didn't cause any problems but he was still killed on the way back home.

This Take is understandable, if you only listen/read what The Narrative tells you. However if you were to look into this story a bit more, you'll discover this video is pretty much A Lie.
You high on copium?
Trayvon martin was seen straddling Zimmerman punching down “mma style” by a witness. End of story .
He was known to take part in fights for fun. Zimmerman may have followed him but from the evidence presented in the trial it was clear to me at least the Trayvon martin managed to get away but doubled back to attack Zimmerman .
He didn't attack Zimmerman. Zimmerman harassed and stalked him until he was forced to defend himself. And of course the basically all white jury found Zimmerman not guilty, that's standard for Amerikkka.
Just say you’re racist and go on
He didn’t double back dummy he was protecting himself doofus
@Rita Mae Zimmerman didn’t defend himself dummy cause he started it
@Rita Mae look at his pic .. he is obviously a troll
“Let Vladimir Putin know now that my election is over I’ll be more flexible.” - Barack Obama. Very inspiring words Barry. I hope I can grow up and sell out like you one day. Enemy of the interests of the people.
The interest of people should be life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
??? Wasn't Trump praising Putin throughout his entire presidency? Didn't Fox and most conservatives stated that we needed to be "strong like Putin" up until last year? I'm a bit confused on where your rhetoric is coming from
Talk about "Russian collusion" !
Bro. U were the president. Could've created a department to prosecute police. Could've gutted funds where police were openly racist. Could've limited police s use of guns by cutting their budget where excessive force were used. It's ur job bro. People can only protest. The probs that were there when u came are still there. It didn't get solved.
BARACK your Bro did what su posted to be done , our great incumbent President did more than Trump the cv19 CLOWN
He’s a neoliberal con man
Earthlings. Silly creatures. Good luck.
How you going to invade Libya but not defend Ukraine? Lol
Because Russia has nukes?
Also America never invaded Libya. America used its air power to give the rebels a chance. American land forces were not used so no invasion.
Ukraine is not apart of NATO so technically its not with our duty to defend and our fight on behalf of Ukraine.
It's powerful and speaks for itself. My only problem is the concept of original sin. Not in this context particularly, but at its root in religion. The notion that we're born bad and need to seek redemption reinforced a power structure as horrible but far longer lasting than bigotry and the enduring legacy of slavery in the United States.
NY Times:. Like Mr. Obama, you clearly have not done your homework.
NTY probably still believe the Tawana Brawley story that Al Sharpton assured us was a racist attack. This whole video lost all credibility when that race grifters mug popped up.
Worst mistake bringing those people over here. Where are those targets sold?

I love America as much as I love my country.Their humanity, sense of life, and sharpness of knowledge all fascinate me. What do they lack? How sweet is their personality! It is like a combination of all human qualities. When will I bless myself by setting foot on American soil? When will that day come! When will the wait end! And I don't even know if they will accept the worst like me.
Well, I'd love to have you here. There's lots of immigrants here in Houston, Texas, and elsewhere. If you're a follower of Islam there's going to be lots of communities with mosques.
I would suggest checking out the Channel 5 News channel.
You see...
We're actually a country full of weird, and sometimes aggressive people.
It can be fun here, and a lot of immigrants do well for themselves.
But please be aware of what you're getting into!
Bro Are You Trolling ? Lmao
Tanveer, i appreciate your sense of humour.
Comedy gold
Don't believe the bs
Anyone who says slavery is an American original sin that neoliberal lie.. Native ppl been here before

He was our most overrated, overhyped, and overly defended president.
The original sin is in Ukraine

Trayvon attacked the dude lol
If you were being followed and chased you wouldn’t defend yourself?
@@Copeharder99 Zimmerman didn't chase nor attack him
@@tbone9803 Trayvon was simply minding his business until he was followed by Zimmerman just because he was a black kid in a hood
No he didn’t lol
@@kjs257incpen3 Just hush!
Why do they hate being black so much. Stop crying about it. It's cringing now.
