Black Lives Matter

The Black Lives Matter movement emerged in 2013 following the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin. The movement has since grown to become a global force in the fight against police brutality and systemic racism.

Protests in the name of Black Lives Matter have been seen around the world and also often lead to new laws being passed that focus on criminal justice reform. The movement has also highlighted how racism is still a huge issue in society, and has sparked conversations about race that were not previously happening on such a large scale.
