BLM

The black lives matter movement is a worldwide human rights movement that campaigns towards violence and systemic racism towards the black community. BLM commonly holds protests speak out towards police brutality and police killings of black people, and broader troubles such as racial profiling, and racial inequality in the United States crook justice system.  

Many young people protest and stand up for the black community regardless of skin color, race, and background. 

I've never seen this much unity for as long as I've lived. But I've also not seen so much division amongst people.

This seems to be a very black and white situation, you either with or against them. 

For example,, there has been a division on whether we should help with the movement in the Latino community.

Many Latinos are claiming that the black community has done nothing to help them with their pressing issues. And questioning why they have to help them if they haven't helped the Latino community.  

Which I don't think is a determining factor for why we shouldn't help. But that's just my opinion.

As well as many young Latinos are pointing out that the news directed towards Spanish speakers fuels the narrative that black people are reckless. And how Latinos have to educate parents and family about this issue and helping them realized that they should get their information only from one source. 

Which is valid.

Also, the division amongst people saying black lives matter vs. all lives matter.

I understand why saying all lives matter is not okay and how that just degrades the whole purpose of all black lives matter. 

Although this isn't cancel culture, I feel that it has to do with what's happening in some way. People were fed up with the way the system is and not only decided to cancel it but try to change it. Which is more than what cancel culture does for our community.

Although many don't agree with the movement, I feel it is necessary to make change. Because nothing changes if nothing changes.
