The 2025 Network Organizational Statement

We believe that the Trayvon Martin case is a national tragedy that spotlights the failure of our justice system to value Black life. The case is particularly emblematic of the millions of Black men and boys whose lives are cut short by violence when they are targeted, profiled, stopped, frisked, and brutalized by various law enforcement officers and others. As a national network with seven BMB Local Impact Sites across the country and solid track record of supporting place-based strategies, advocacy, and policy initiatives, we are committed to joining forces with various social justice organizations as well as our existing community partners across the country to advocate for justice for Trayvon Martin's family.
