Black Lives Matter
The Black Lives Matter movement is something that every race should support. This issue of injustice is deeply rooted in American history. This didn’t start a couple of years ago and it won’t go away next year. The more people and society can talk about these issues openly, it can create ripples of change. I have gathered some resources to help get the conversation started. I hope this can start you on your path to learning more about anti-racism and BLM.
