How did Al Sharpton come to represent Trayvon Martin?

How did Al Sharpton come to represent Trayvon Martin?
The news say that Al Sharpton is to lead the protests in Florida during the filming of Trayvon Martin.Sharpton accounts in USA Today, the Chicago Tribune, the Washington Post and the Boston Globe all identified as a “civil right activist”. The New York Times goes one step further and calls him a “civil rights leader”-presumably in the mold of Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks. So the question is more relevant than ever: how in the name of all that is good and decent excellence self-promoting racial hustler who never became so respectable? Both was even his own TV show NBC delivered a turnoff?
