Black Lives Matter (as a digital activist group)

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a global activist movement that emerged in response to systemic racism and violence against Black individuals, particularly police brutality. Founded in 2013, it uses digital platforms to raise awareness, mobilize protests, and advocate for policy changes to address racial inequalities. BLM emphasizes the importance of recognizing the value of Black lives in social and political contexts. Through social media campaigns and community organizing, the movement seeks to unite people in fighting against injustice and promoting a more equitable society for all.
