Protests against Racial Discrimination in U.S.

Pyongyang, March 29 (KCNA) -- New marches and popular protests against racism and on the case of Trayvon Martin were staged in the United States on Monday. The disarmed black teenager, 17, was shot dead by a voluntary security guard in the neighborhood of Sanford, Florida, as he left a coffee shop where he bought iced tea.

The incident involves many illegal questions, and the murderer has not been arrested by the police.

Martin's case has sparked off a wave of rallies in the African-American community, mainly in California, New York and Florida. Protestors strongly demanded the authorities immediately punish the murderer.
