Middle and high school students in San Diego, California will be encouraged to vent their frustration that the world lacks justice when they return to school and participate in the Trayvon Martin dialogues this fall.
The board of San Diego Unified Schools unanimously approved a proposal recently to establish classroom forums to discuss the death of Trayvon Martin, a black teenager who was shot during an altercation with a Hispanic man, George Zimmerman, in Florida last year. A jury recently acquitted Zimmerman, who claimed that Martin struck first and shot him in self-defense.
The sponsors of San Diegos Trayvon Martin dialogues, however, believe the resolution of the case has produced in teenagers feelings of fear, anger, and skepticism that they will live in a just society, according to The College Fix.
The full proposal calls for forum participants to explicitly condemn stand your ground laws, which permit citizens to use force to defend themselves in dangerous situations instead of retreating. Floridas law was erroneously credited with prompting the conflict between Martin and Zimmerman, though the matter never became a significant factor at the trial, since Zimmerman had no option to retreat, according to his official testimony.

Too true !
We need to get the liberals out of the education system ;
they are using propaganda to bend the young and impressionable minds into their way of thinking.
Why else do you think Bill Ayers, and his wife , are in the educational field ?
He and his compatriots are attempting to raise a new generation of radicals and revolutionaries.
That student will be “disciplined” after school by an informal jury of his/her peers.
The parents who care pulled their kids out long ago.
