John,
Today and always, we're honoring the angelversary of Trayvon Martin.
“If you don't do anything else, don't give up. That's my message, don't ever give up. Ten years later, and I'm still standing strong.” – Sybrina Fulton, mother of Trayvon Martin.
Despite the devastating life stolen at the hands of vigilante violence, Sybrina Fulton has been able to channel her immeasurable heartache into the immense strength needed to elicit positive change. Today, Black people from all walks of life share a unified bond because they set their eyes toward this hope. It is a true blessing that we continue to live through the light that Trayvon Martin and his family have created.
11 years after Trayvon Martin's brutal murder, our collective hope serves as the framework for a vision that brings us closer to safety for everyone. ur movement is still fighting to #DefundThePolice and, instead, invest and empower our communities.
It's on us to be catalysts for change by uplifting the experiences of Black people. That's why we are proud to always support Sybrina and the Trayvon Martin Foundation. We are honored that the Trayvon Martin Foundation is one of Black Lives Matter's grantee organizations.
John, we remain dedicated to the fight against systems of oppression and the state-sanctioned violence that led to the murder of Trayvon.. Please visit the foundation's website to get involved or to directly make a donation.
In love and solidarity,
Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation
