its kinda sad that it took THIS long for people to really wake up to the racial issues plaguing America, but its really heart warming to see all these groups donating to the cause. We still got a long road but this is an amazing start to bettering race relations as a country.

This same cycle happens every few years and nothing changes. The companies tweeting black lives matter are getting good pr.
