It is with extreme excitement and with great honor that my Family & I announce to the world...

The El Tarmaine “LT” Sanders Memorial Scholarship. This Scholarship Fund will be utilized to award deserving Students of the Arts at Rowan University.

After 26 years of living with this nightmare our Family is simply looking forward to building the legacy of our loved one, LT! A young man with a promising future who was killed by a Glassboro Police Officer back in 1994. Our voices were silenced then but they are being heard loud and clear today! We’re extremely grateful for Margaret Wilson, a current Rowan University Student, who took on the task of getting this done! We are forever grateful.

To Rowan University, we say thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. We’re looking forward to meeting all of the Students who will be afforded the opportunity to pursue their dreams. Something LT was robbed of. We’re looking forward to educating, empowering, and equipping our community further by sharing our story, rendering aid where needed, assuring inclusion, and through the power of prayer!

This is simply just the beginning and we are looking forward to even greater things to come!

We will update you all with the link to donate via the Rowan University website in the coming days.

In the meantime let’s take a moment to remember... to reflect... and most importantly to celebrate LT’s life and the legacy that’s being built even in his absence!



God is simply amazing!

Justice has only just begun to be served! The officer who shot and killed El Tarmaine “LT” Sanders back in 1994 was just fired from Rowan University as Director Of Emergency Services.

It’s been a long time coming for our family and it’s just the beginning of the Justice we seek but we are forever grateful for the onward, upward, and forward motion that we see towards justice!

In an initiative to remember LT even further and to continue the momentum built! We’re simply asking you all to join us in Green Screening your social media platforms for 24 hours (ending 6/9 @ 11:30pm)!

The fight continues... the momentum continues to be built... and we won’t stop until we see the same injustices be brought to justice around the world!

To everyone who has dropped it, thinking you didn’t stand a chance in this fight... I encourage you to pick it back up! It’s never too late for justice to be served and this is our hour of redemption! Let’s stand together! We’re prepared to fight with you!

On behalf of my family... Thank you for standing with us and loving us through this for the past 26 years! God is amazing! 💚💪🏾✊🏾🙌🏾

To My Cousin, El Tarmaine “LT” Sanders! This past week I’ve told your story repeatedly. It’s been 26 years and God showed me a few years back that the fight for you was far from over. He spoke to my spirit and told me that I’d be your voice in this and that our family would see a day that brought us peace around this entire situation.
I had no idea to what magnitude and I had no idea how many lives would be lost before it all erupted! I thought creating this page a few years back and holding a memorial in your name was my voice... I thought it was a way of giving our family an outlet to remember you and always keep you relevant. I had no idea, Cuz!
I miss you! I’m way too big for those airplane rides on your feet anymore (lol) but boy oh boy what I’d do to have you with us today. I feel you with me every single time a mic is handed to me... or every time I speak to someone in your regard... my nerves subside and there’s an undeniable strength that dominates... your story will be heard and last night as I rested... I heard... “It’s Never Too Late For Justice To Be Served”! The fight continues! I got you Cuz! I got you!

💪🏾💚

On this day 23 years ago... My cousin, El Tarmaine "El Tee" Sanders, was gunned down senselessly by an officer of the Glassboro Police Department. It's been 23 years since the protests broke out and our little town as we knew it erupted with anger, emotion, and suffered a great divide. It's been 23 years since my Aunt made a simple phone call to the police for help that changed her life forever! 23 years since I saw my Grandfather cry for the very first time. 23 years since my family had to stand on each other's shoulders in the midst of our shaken lives... 23 years since I was told my favorite cousin was never coming back... 23! 23 years since I laid down as a child and had nightmares and my fear of the police began! It's been 23 years since I sat in the chair and saw blood running down the windows when in reality there was nothing there... it's been 23 years since you left us... correction... it's been 23 years since you were taken... I know if you had the choice I would have had many more airplane rides on your feet and bells to ring for you when I'm sick... I know I would have had many more times of you shaking up the ice tea container and opening it in my face... more time to enjoy life with you... my fave! You wouldn't have left us... if you had the choice! Instead... an officer of the Glassboro Police Dept. made a decision to take you away from us... leaving our family completely distraught! I remember looking at you for the last time... the pain in your mothers eyes! The heart break that was written on the faces of our grandparents... I still remember all the flashing lights that night... You were 14... with so much potential... so many amazing hopes and dreams... that you never had the chance to achieve... because a coward of a cop chose to squeeze!

Peter Amico, a retired officer of the Glassboro Police Department murdered my cousin in cold blood! He was not only protected by the GPD but honored shortly after...

Although it's been 23 years... my family still suffered a great loss and I'd like to take the time to say thank you to every one of you who stood with us... every one of you who hugged my Auntie and wished you could ease the pain she felt... everyone of you who loved my family through such tragic times... I was just a little one but I remember it like it was yesterday... I thank all of the political figures who came from all over the world to demand justice! Although that justice was never served, we are confident that God does all things well!

As I sit to reflect this morning... my heart also goes out to everyone who has suffered such loss... to the families of Tamir Rice, Mike Brown, Dontre Hamilton, Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin, John Crawford, Jarame Reid, Freddy Gray, Phillip White, Sandra Bland, and the many others... rest in the knowing that there is no judge who could render a better verdict and justice than Jesus!!!

These killings are not something that just began... It goes so far back beyond this but in 1994... It hit home for my family! My first cousin... El Tarmaine Diominee Sanders was gunned down by a white officer at the age of 14 right in our hometown... Glassboro, NJ!!!!! I'll never forget that day!!! I was just 6 years old but I remember it just like it was yesterday... I remember seeing my family so torn apart... I remember not understanding why I would never get to see my favorite cousin again... I was 6... He was 14!!!! He looked out for me... He allowed me to pretend I was an airplane as he flew me back and forth on his feet... He gave me a bell and told me to ring it on Thanksgiving while I was in the bed sick in our Grandparents bed and every time I rang it... He came running to see what I needed... I was 6... He was 14... And that officer with his poor judgement, incompetence, and carelessness took him away from me!!!! He took him away from my family and away from his dreams and his destiny!

Physically life goes on... But mentally there's residue to deal with.. Fears to conquer.. And sometimes paralyzing emotions that have to be gotten rid of... However, when you live in a world such as this... When you live in the land of the "free" and the home of the "brave"... Where BLACK MEN are losing their lives and you don't even get a break between the tragedies ... Its hard to get there completely! My heart breaks everytime...

Its not fair! Its not right! Stop taking our BLACK MENS lives!!!!!!!!!!

That very same cop that took my cousins life... Went out on Administrative leave... To protect him... They gave him a different position... Years later... He showed up at our house after a call was made that my Grandmother passed out... Not a word.. Not an apology... Nothing!!! && how dare they send him...

El Tee's life mattered... These other men who have been gunned down by police... Their lives mattered... And the men who still have to face these grueling streets ahead... Their lives matter!!!!!

And THIS HAS TO STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
