Shaun King - Wikipedia Movement Black Lives Matter Jeffery Shaun King (born September 17, 1979) is an American writer and civil rights activist. He is noted for his use of social media to promote social causes, including the Black Lives Matter movement. He is a columnist for The Intercept. Previously, he was a contributing writer for Daily Kos and a political commentator for The Young Turks.
King has written extensively about incidents in the Black Lives Matter movement, gaining prominence during the events following the shooting of Michael Brown. King wrote an article analyzing the Brown crime scene, and argued that the evidence suggested that officer Darren Wilson's life was not in danger during the shooting.[34][35] King became a contributing blogger for the politically liberal website the Daily Kos in September 2014.[36]
May 20, 2018 King accused a white Texas state trooper of raping Sherita Dixon-Cole, an African-American human resources professional.[49][50] The trooper arrested Dixon-Cole for drunk driving and King based his accusation on statements she and her family made to King and Philadelphia lawyer S. Lee Merritt. King's social media posts, which identified the trooper by name, went viral and threats were made against the arresting trooper as well as another trooper with the same last name.[51] The Texas Department of Public Safety released nearly two hours of body cam footage on May 22 that exonerated the trooper.[52] Merritt subsequently apologized for the false accusation and national attention he had brought to the case.[53] King deleted his social media posts after the body cam video was released.[53][54][55]
King has raised money for multiple causes including the Tamir Rice shooting, and various incidents where the Black Lives Matter movement has been involved. Through the fund-raising website, YouCaring.com, King raised $60,000 for Rice's family.
