A Nativity scene at the Claremont Methodist Church in Claremont California features Trayvon Martin wearing his hoodie with blood that pours out of his chest from the fatal Zimmerman gunshot. The blood flows onto the Nativity floor. The scene is called:
“A Child is Born, a Son is Given,”
John Zachary created a Nativity scene for Claremont United Methodist Church that employs a figure of Trayvon Martin as a commentary on gun violence. Previous scenes have had Mary and Joseph as a homeless couple and as war refugees. “You try to put it in a context of how it would be today,” Zachary said. David Allen
