What is the significance behind the black lives matter movement? Since racism was a large subject, I wanted to move on with this issue to speak about it. This specific question was not on any of the questions that I wrote down in my last assignment. My main focus is on the “Black lives Matter” movement, The problem goes back a long way to how it has had a major impact around the world, and it is still going on. The issue talks about police brutality, white supremacy , how the system abuses human rights and how corrupt the system is.
