Racism:black lives matter
First Let's start by knowing the backstory of the Black Lives Matter movement, the defences and criticisms of the movement, and how the movement has affected American society in this blog post.
I'll talk about some of the problems the movement(black lives matter) is nowadays facing and bring in some recommendations for how to proceed.
How Black Lives Matter started...
The clearing of George Zimmermann in the shootings of Trayvon Martin pointed out the origin of the "Black Lives Matter" movement. Despite disarming Martin( a black teenager, Zimmerman) white man, was cleared of all charges of second-degree murder and manslaughter. The verdict led to protests and anger across the country.
Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi founded and started a hashtag Black Lives Matter on social media to seek justice for George Zimmerman's acquittal. Eventually, Black Lives Matter has grown into a global movement that is concerned with police brutality, mass imprisonment, and other types of racial injustice. The hashtag went viral quickly and became a rallying cry for the movement. In addition to protests and marches, the movement has used social media and other platforms to spread the word about racial inequality.
Positives and Negatives of Black Lives Matter:-
The Black Lives Matter movement has many supporters and people who disagree with it. The movement's main reason was to create greater public awareness of systemic racism against Black people in America. They contend that the movement is necessary to promote reform in both the government and society at large.
However, the Black Lives Matter movement is opposed because it fosters conflict and encourages violence. People opposing that claim the movement does not address the underlying causes of racial inequality and does not represent all Black people.
The movement's effects on black lives.
American society has been significantly impacted by the Black Lives Matter movement. A new generation of activists was inspired by the movement to fight against racial justice and it sparked a national discussion on race and racism.
Additionally, the movement has had a significant impact. Numerous police departments have implemented fresh training programs to address unspoken bias in the wake of the demonstrations against Black Lives Matter. In addition, the criminal justice system has been the target of legislation passed by some states.
The difficulties facing the Black Lives Matter movement.
One of the difficulties facing the Black Lives Matter movement is opposition from some people who think the movement incites conflict or encourages violence. The absence of permission from some white internet users presents an additional difficulty.
Black Lives Matter has achieved a great deal of success despite these obstacles. A new generation of police officials was motivated to fight for racial justice by the movement's exposure to systemic racism.
Few strategies for the Black Lives Matter movement to progress.
The movement for Black Lives Matter can advance in many ways.
The first strategy is to continue educating people about systemic racism. Assisting the efforts of Black Lives Matter activists. It's crucial to discuss race and racism with friends, family, and coworkers. According to me black lives Matter is a powerful movement that seeks to change the course of history is called "Black Lives Matter."
We can contribute to creating a community that is fair for everyone if we support this movement.
