Continuing a movement started by the organizers of Black Lives Matter in 2013, people all over the world have come together to protest police brutality, systemic racism, and the murder of George Floyd. From big cities with thousands of protestors to small towns with dozens, communities are making their voices heard and demanding changes to racist and violent systems that have resulted in countless senseless deaths. Protesting is a tool that people throughout history have used to demand action and seek justice. Whether you attend a protest, discuss the Black Lives Matter movement with your friends and family, create signs to display at your own home, start a digital protest, or find another way to help community-lead organizations and protestors, you can be part of the change. You can already see some beautiful, inspiring, creative projects and thoughtful discussions around Scratch--this is an important part of the work! We all have a part to play in ending systemic racism, and we are stronger when we listen to, learn from, and support each other. Remember that this is a movement, not a moment--it's never too late to join in.
