Black Lives Matter (movement)

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a social and political movement that began in 2013 in response to systemic racism and violence against Black individuals, particularly police brutality. It aims to raise awareness about issues like racial inequality, discrimination, and injustice faced by Black communities. Through protests, advocacy, and educational campaigns, BLM seeks to promote social change and accountability. The movement emphasizes that the value of Black lives must be recognized and protected, advocating for reforms in policing, criminal justice, and broader societal attitudes toward race. BLM has become a significant force in discussions about race and equality globally.
