Black Lives Matter Protests (BrainPOP)
Description
Note to parents and educators: This topic seeks to address common questions children might have about the current Black Lives Matter protests in response to the death of George Floyd and other Black Americans. Because it describes racist violence, please preview the movie before watching it with young children. We also have a blog post with some tips for discussing the issues raised in the movie.
You might have been hearing about huge demonstrations in cities across the country and around the world. The protests are in response to the death of George Floyd, a Black man killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota. “Black Lives Matter” is both a rallying cry at the protests and a human rights organization that demands an end to violence against Black people in America. It began in 2013 when three Black activists, Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi, used the hashtag after Trayvon Martin's killer went unpunished. It became a mass protest movement in 2014 when Michael Brown was killed in Ferguson, Missouri. It has continued to fight against structural racism and its effects in our society. Press “play” to learn how uniting in protest can help end injustice in our democracy.
