This Is An Movement That We Cannot Contiune To Ignore.  The Panel Will Put Their Heads Together In Efforts To See How We As A Culture Can Combat Such Issues, Rise Above, and Come Together As A CommunityTo Get Through These Trying Times And Prevelent Issues. Black Lives Matter is an activist movement in the United States that began in the wake of the July 2013 acquittal of George Zimmerman in the Florida shooting death of African-American teen Trayvon Martin. The Black Lives Matter movement campaigns against what it callspolice brutality in the United States against African-Americans. The group received fresh impetus from the 2014 deaths of two unarmed African Americans, teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri and 43-year-old Eric Garner in New York City; in both cases the grand jury did not indict the officers and no charges were brought. Several unarmed African Americans who died at the hands of law enforcement have had their deaths protested by the movement, including Tamir Rice, Eric Harris, Walter Scott, and Freddie Gray (whose death sparked the 2015 Baltimore protests). Several media organizations have referred to it as "a new civil rights movement". Call In this Evening To Be Apart Of the Movement at (657) 383-1766.
