The Mothers of the Movement
23 Feb 2017 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
The Mothers of the Movement (MOTM) is rooted in Black Lives Matters. MOTM consists of mothers who have loss a son to police violence. Since the losing of their children, the mothers have participated in a range of advocacy campaigns aimed at increasing transparency and accountability for officers who kill in the line of duty, enacting better gun control measures to reduce street violence and repealing laws that might shield vigilantes from prosecution. In this symposium local MOTM will share their stories of pain, coping and healing.
