M IAMI - Civil rights leaders said Tuesday they are planning vigils and rallies in 100 U. S. cities this weekend to press the federal government to bring charges against a former neighbourhood- watch volunteer acquitted in the killing of an unarmed black teenager. George Zimmerman had been charged with second- degree murder in the fatal shooting of 17- year- old Trayvon Martin last year, but a jury of six women found him not guilty of that charge as well as the lesser charge of manslaughter. " People all across the country will gather to show that we are not having a two- or three- day anger fit. This is a social movement for justice," Rev. Al Sharpton said as he announced the plan outside the Justice Department in Washington, D. C. The rallies and vigils will occur in front of federal court buildings at noon Saturday in cities including Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia and New York. Martin was visiting his father and returning to the home of his father's fianc�e after a trip to the store when Zimmerman identified him as a potential criminal. The neighbourhood watchman fatally shot Martin during a physical confrontation in the gated community in February 2012. Sharpton says vigils will be followed by a conference next week in Miami to develop a plan to address Florida's " stand- your- ground" law. The law gives people wide latitude to use deadly force if they fear death or bodily harm. U. S. Attorney General Eric Holder said such laws, which exist in many states, need to be reassessed. " Separate and apart from the case that has drawn the nation's attention, it's time to question laws that senselessly expand the concept of self- defence and sow dangerous conflict in our neighbourhoods," Holder said in a speech before a convention of the NAACP civil rights group. Meanwhile, protests over Zimmerman's acquittal have broken out as far away as California. In Los Angeles, people ran through streets Monday night, breaking windows, attacking people on sidewalks and raiding a Wal- Mart store. Others blocked a major freeway in the San Francisco Bay area in the third night of demonstrations. Fourteen people were arrested after multiple acts of vandalism and several assaults in Los Angeles. Los Angeles police vowed Tuesday to crack down with quick action and arrests if further disturbances arise. Demonstrators were ordered remain on sidewalks Tuesday night and will be arrested if they commit any crimes or block traffic, police said. The Justice Department has said it is looking into Martin's death to determine whether federal prosecutors will file criminal civil rights charges against Zimmerman, who is now a free man. His lawyer has told ABC News Zimmerman will get his gun back and intends to arm himself again. The key to charging Zimmerman lies in whether evidence exists that he was motivated by racial animosity to kill Martin. While Martin's family has said the teen was racially profiled, no evidence surfaced during the Florida trial that Zimmerman had a racial bias. Zimmerman's friends and family have repeatedly denied he harboured racial animosity toward blacks. The lone juror in the case who has spoken publicly - known only as Juror B37 because their identities have not been released - said Monday she did not believe Zimmerman followed Martin because the teen was black. - The Associated Press Rallies to urge shooter be charged Rights leaders plan protests in 100 U. S. cities WOLFVILLE, N. S. - Celebrated painter Alex Colville, whose meticulously crafted scenes of everyday life established him as one of Canada's most well- known modern artists, has died at age 92. His son, Graham,, said his father died Tuesday at his home in Wolfville, N. S. A painter, engraver, sketch artist and muralist, Colville earned a reputation for crafting tranquil compositions that focused on routine moments of family life and featured landscapes, animals and the sea. His work was accessible, memorable and reached millions of Canadians through myriad avenues, including art galleries, magazines, book covers, postcards, posters, television, coins and even the cover of a Bruce Cockburn record album. With his focus on the ordinary, some have been tempted to crown the Maritimer as Canada's Norman Rockwell. Colville began his career as a military artist and famously documented troops landing at Juno Beach on D- Day, becoming the most prominent painter to document Canada's involvement in the Second World War. After the war, he forged a unique hyper- realist style that eschewed fashionable trends towards abstract and expressionist art. " No other modern painter is so unconscious of prevailing fashion and so indifferent to what's new in the art world," literary critic John Bayley said of Colville in his book, Elegy for Iris . Colville's images managed to elicit feelings of contemplation and angst through the pairing of incongruous elements such as a languid nude with a gun or a blond toddler next to a large black dog with prominent claws. Even his most serene compositions were infused with a sense of unease. " I see life as inherently dangerous. I have an essentially dark view of the world and human affairs," he has said. " Anxiety is the normality of our age." Colville's rigorously crafted works included To Prince Edward Island , Nude and Dummy and Horse and Train , which Cockburn put on the jacket of his 1973 album Night Vision . Colville's 1953 piece, Man on Verandah , sold for $ 1.29 million at an auction in November 2010, setting a record for a work by a living Canadian artist. His technique involved a painstaking process of multiple drawings, precise geometry and carefully applied blots of paint, often taking months. Chances are good that many Canadians carried an example of Colville's work in their own pocket at one time or another - he designed a series of coins for the 1967 centennial that put a mackerel on the dime, a hare on the nickel and a dove with outstretched wings on the penny. Colville was born Aug. 24, 1920 in Toronto. He moved to Amherst, N. S., as a boy with his family and studied fine arts at Mount Allison University. He graduated in 1942 and married that same year in Wolfville, N. S. His wife and muse, Rhoda Colville, died in December 2012 at the couple's home in Wolfville. After they married, Colville served in the Canadian Army from 1942 to 1946, working as a military artist from 1944 to 1946. He then taught painting and art history at Mount Allison University in Sackville, N. B., where the couple raised three sons and a daughter. - The Canadian Press Artist a painter of everyday scenes OBITUARY ALEX COLVILLE By Cassandra Szklarski JOHNNY HANSON / THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Zimmerman acquittal brought protesters to Houston city council Tuesday.
