Now that the trial of George Zimmerman is over, what will become of the hooded sweatshirt worn by Travyon Martin on the night he was shot and killed? That's the question posed today in a great Washington Post piece. And while it may be some time before we get an answer, one suggestion means the hooded sweatshirt, a piece of clothing that has taken on greater meaning after Martin's death, could eventually be on display in D.C.

Lonnie Bunch, the director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, told the Post he'd "love" to acquire the sweatshirt for a collection, an idea endorsed by the Rev. Al Sharpton
