Parents of all races took to the streets in Los Angeles, Calif., over the weekend to protest the not guilty verdict handed to George Zimmerman.

"Is my son next?"
"Are 1 of my 3 sons next?"
In the next two photos, protestors from two different racial backgrounds hold signs decrying the unfair and unequal treatment they each face as a member of their race.
