What the Experts Say I

 

        In late may, mass demonstrations against police brutality and racism began in the United States. In protest, users, including actors and Directors, began to post black squares on social networks and donate money to funds to fight social injustice. Such a response was caused by the death of George Floyd, who died after being detained by the police.

     On June 2, the Blackout Tuesday campaign began in social networks, in which users, including celebrities, began to publish black squares EN masse. The idea of the campaign is to temporarily abandon the usual activity on the Internet and pay attention to the fight against racism. Initially, Blackout Tuesday was invented by top managers of music labels, but soon the initiative was supported by actors and Directors. Among them are Tyrese Gibson, Jamie Foxx, spike Lee, will Smith, jada Pinkett Smith, viola Davis, Halle berry, Octavia Spencer and others.

    As we know, each of the popular people has a mission, including to cover important pressing issues of our time. Who knows, there would have been such a resonance around this story without the support of celebrities?
