The Trayvon Martin Foundation will host a two-day healing retreat for mothers who have experienced gun violence.
The Circle of Mothers Empowerment Retreat, spearheaded Sybrina Fulton will be held in Weston, Florida from May 16-18 and will include workshops, empowerment seminars, and keynote speeches by influencers including rapper Tupac Shakurs mother Afeni Shakur.
Fulton is inviting all mothers, not just African-Americans, who have lost a child. The loss of a child is unbearable, she said in a statement. The goal of this retreat is to gather together women, who like myself have experienced every mothers nightmare.
Both Shakur and Fulton have lost sons very publicly and have transformed their loss into social change. Both hope this weekend will help mothers by giving them the tools to take the progressive steps forward towards healing, said Fulton.

Will the workshops include how to break into people’s houses? Or how to roll a joint? Or how to beat someone near to death?

The St. Skittles Foundation....Ha !!
he met his demise a little sooner than he might have, but he would still be in the same place by now, or in a year or two.
He was headed for jail, and an early grave. Zimmerman jsut gave it a jump start.

A two-day healing retreat for mothers who have experienced gun violence ... should be based ONLY on the TRUTH !
Home schooling is the ONLY way to go.
Start with teaching your children the FACTS that liberals despise.
Its like "Holy Water" against these "life-sucking", "life-destroying" vampires.
First show them that
"Fulton abandoned the kid when he was 3.
His step-mother brought him up.
The father moved on to woman 3.
12 years later she DUMPED him back on Fulton.
The step-mother saidhe didn't use bad language when he was with her
so we can surmise he went wild with Fulton.
She identified his scream in court, but she had no way of knowing.
They pushed the step-mother into the shadows, the only real mother he ever knew."
Then show your children these links:
Trayvon should NOT have told George Zimmerman:while trying to grab George Zimmermans gun ... saying, tonight you die, ************
Trayvon should NOT have gone for George Zimmerman's handgun.
Trayvon should NOT have pinned George Zimmerman down on the ground. Trayvon should NOT have broken George Zimmerman’s nose.
Trayvon should NOT have given George Zimmerman two black eyes.
Trayvon should NOT have repeatedly slammed George Zimmerman’s head on the pavement.
Trayvon should NOT have gotten suspended from school for possessing traces of marijuana.
Trayvon should NOT have stolen 12 pcs of ladies jewelry, and a mans watch.
Trayvon should NOT have kept a flat head screwdriver described as a burglary tool, in his backpack.
Trayvon should NOT have had a criminal past of theft, hiding and acting suspicious.
Trayvon should NOT have encouraged ... fellow thugs to commit murder with the tweet, Plzz shoot da #mf dat lied 2 u!.
Trayvon should NOT have had a police record FOIA Sunlight And More Trayvon Martin Police Records.
Trayvon should NOT have had Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin for parents, who didn't discipline their unruly son, when he needed it.
Then they refused to admit to themselves, at each step along the way toward this disaster, that their son, Trayvon Martin, had a real problem and needed professional help!
Had the situation been handled different by Trayvon Martin, he might still be alive. For instance, what if it had gone like null and void suggested ?
TRAYVON MARTIN: - Hey, are you following me?
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN: - Ummm, yes.
TRAYVON MARTIN: - May I ask why?
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN: - Well, uh, we've had a number off robberies in this neighborhood lately, and I don't recognize you...
TRAYVON MARTIN: - Oh, well, I'm Travon Martin, I'm spending the summer at my uncle's in unit 12. I expect you'll see a lot of me this summer.
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN: - OK, thanks, good to know. I'm George Zimmerman, by the way.
They shake hands.
TRAYVON MARTIN: - No, thank you for keeping an eye out for your neighbors!
But, NO !
It DID NOT go that way.
That should be
a good start , and
that should drive those
VILE teachers into
insanity.

Do you think they might ever host a summit for mothers of Black children lost to Black violence? I’m willing to bet the attendance might be just a tad higher. And yes I know..............RACIST!

Should be a seminar for “Mothers” on how to control those “Little Trayvon’s” that play the knock out game, break into houses etc. etc.
