The United States (and many other countries across the world) is currently undergoing an incredibly important movement to fight police brutality and systemic oppression against black people, which has persisted for far too long. This continues the work of #BlackLivesMatter, a movement which originated in 2013 after the murderer of black teenager Trayvon Martin was aquitted. As this movement has taken to social media, many are resharing the work of artists, educators, and designers with their own followers.
