Black Lives Matter is a social movement dedicated to fighting racism and police brutality against Black people across the globe. Alice Garza and her co-founders started the Black Lives Matter with just a Twitter hashtag in 2013 after the killing of Trayvon Martin, an African American teenager; and it turned into a global network that builds power to bring justice. Trayvon was walking home from the store when a police officer followed him. The police officer followed and shot Trayvon, George Zimmerman (the police officer) was not arrested right away, which made everyone upset. People started protesting and fighting for justice for Trayvon. Not all people were protesting at the time until the death of George Floyd and everyone said enough is enough. George Floyd was at a store when someone called the cops because they thought his money was fake. When the police officers came to him they said he was resisting and one police officer put his knee on George’s neck until he couldn’t breathe. People were protesting because the killing of George Floyd was inhumane and wanted the officers to be held accountable for their senseless behavior; especially the one who held his knee on George until he could no longer breathe.
According to Richmond Pledge, they have addressed the different misconceptions about the movement and its purpose. “The statement “Black Lives Matter” is not an anti-white proposition. Contained within the statement is an unspoken but implied “too,” as in “Black lives matter, too,” which suggests that the statement is one of inclusion rather than exclusion. However, those white people who continue to mischaracterize the affirmation of the value of black life as being anti-white are suggesting that in order for white lives to matter, black lives cannot. That is a foundational premise of white supremacy. It is antithetical to what the Black Lives Matter movement stands for, which is the simple proposition that “Black lives also matter.” The Black Lives Matter movement demands that the country affirm the value of black life in practical and pragmatic ways, including addressing an increasing racial wealth gap, fixing public schools that are failing, combating issues of housing inequality and gentrification that continue to push people of color out of communities they have lived in for generations, and dismantling the prison industrial complex. None of this is about hatred” (11 Major Misconception about BLM 3). I agree with this and it’s a simple fact that all Black people want is their lives to matter and want to be treated justly. If all come to an agreement many black lives can be saved and we can live in a world where everyone feels valued and dignified.
All in all, since the beginning of America, black people’s lives were treated like they don’t matter. Black people were enslaved and oppressed due to the color of their skin. When slavery ended, black people’s lives were still discriminated against due to the color of their skin. “All Lives Matter’
