BLM is important because it shouts a message to the world of grave important, its been so long since the world promised freedom yet didn't actually give it. It fights the people who constantly commit crime to the black community.

# data[].attributes.body
what led them to activism ?
Is seeing the mistreat of people and the dehumanization they have to go everyday.
How was the media response to Trayvon Martin ? what is your reaction to this ?
Several TV networks and newspapers have been criticized for their misleading and sometimes inaccurate coverage. I feel like they should be hold accountable for what they did.
whats the difference between "All Lives Matter" and "Black Lives Matter" is that all lives matter is anyone no matter the race and there beliefs. while black life matter is a movement to fight against the inequality there is

# data[].attributes.body
Women who created BLM have been ignored were treated horribly by those that were against the movement. The factor that led to them to activism would be the horrors of the treatment of people of color. The media response to Trayvon Martin that he was a victim of this brutality to where people were outraged of it. This movement is bigger than social media to where there are people out there fighting for rights and equality to all people of color than the interest of social media. The difference between ¨All Lives Matter¨ is that it focus on everyone, even more of people of color and ¨Black Lives Matter¨ meaning that for Black and Brown lives. This question that idea of citizenship to allowing people in America to be here as well, no matter their race that everyone has the right to be here.

# data[].attributes.body
The main claim in black lives matter is a movement to action. It is a tool to re-imagine a world where black people are free to exist, free to live. It is a tool for our allies to show up differently for us.

# data[].attributes.body
The main claim about why Black Lives Matter in America would be to that movement to being rise to the action to go against the power of oppression. Allowing people of color have their rights to live and be free for their dreams to make it reality.

# data[].attributes.body
What led to activism? They're experience of being black in america, the dehumanization that comes with being black.What was yours and the medias reaction to Trayvon Martin? Well I'm mad and not surprised by the false media coverage painting them as someone who deserved what they got, very misleading. Whats the difference between "All Live Matter" and " Black Lives Matter" The difference is that All Lives Matter is for people to feel include especially white folks in response to BLM a movement fighting the brutality of our society that makes black folk internalize their "inferiority".

# data[].attributes.body
They literally state it at the beginning. " : Black Lives Matter is our call to action. It is a tool to reimagine a world where black people are free to exist, free to live. It is a tool for our allies to show up differently for us."

# data[].attributes.body

Alicicia Garza's message about racism today is that the closer you are to white on that spectrum, the better off you are. And the closer to black that you are on that spectrum the worse off you are

# data[].attributes.body
Alicia Garza´s message about racism today is that it is the most studied social, economic, and political phenomenon that is least understood. Even to where people of today have been treated to where it can go bad to worse with racism.

# data[].attributes.body
The closer you are on the black spectrum the more racism you face in our modern world, which is why we need to target the root of our problem which is our black communities which will cause a bubble up instead of trickle down, targeting a lot of our problems as it cuts down the tree or racism.

# data[].attributes.body
Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi believe the Black Lives Matter movement needs today to be successful is that we need to acknowledge that different people contribute different strengths, and that in order for our entire team to flourish, we have to allow them to share and allow them to shine.

# data[].attributes.body
What led them to activism: They hated watching black people be mistreated.

What was yours and social media reaction to Trayvon Martin: My input on this situation was messed up because of what happened to him plus how they let the person who killed him go free.

Whats the difference between All lives matter and Black lives matter: The difference is that yes all lives do matter but black lives are being targeted the most and most bad things come from people of color.

# data[].attributes.body
Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi believe the Black Lives Matter movement needs today to be successful to have the knowledge against the oppression to where people of color need to come together to take the stance and contribute against power to make knowledge powerful than oppression.

1. What led them to activism?
To take action against the injustices that their people faced (police mistreating their family and friends).
2. What was the media response to Trayvon Martin? What is your reaction to this?
The media response was that they wanted justice for Trayvon and yeah I also feel that justice should be brought. It's not something that can be swept under the rug.
3. How is this movement bigger than social media?
It spreads to the real world. It's more than a hashtag, it's a movement.

# data[].attributes.body
They both believe that for this campaign to be successful is that we need people to unite to help spread the awareness of the cause plus use people to their strengths to help the cause and not their weaknesses.

# data[].attributes.body
What they hope for the Black future is  seeing older people step into their own power and leadership ,immigrants all over the world who are doing the best that they can to make a living, to survive and also to thrive.

# data[].attributes.body
Black Lives Matter is important for the US because it allows for us to advocate and raise awareness to the injustices that Black lives face in America. It is important that we change our current policies and reform our criminal justice, education, and prison systems in order to make America a safer and more suitable environment for Black Americans.

# data[].attributes.body
"but what if instead we imagine black life? We imagine black people living and thriving. And that -- that inspires me." " What inspires me these days are immigrants. Immigrants all over the world who are doing the best that they can to make a living, to survive and also to thrive...  And some of these people who are immigrants are also undocumented. They're unauthorized. And they inspire me even more because although our society is telling them, you're not wanted, you're not needed here, and they're highly vulnerable and subject to abuse, to wage theft, to exploitation and xenophobic attacks, many of them are also beginning to organize in their communities."

# data[].attributes.body
What they hope for the black future is to see people step into their own power and fulfill the leadership role that they earned. And also communication because something as simple as that can get somebody killed.

# data[].attributes.body
It's very important to the U.S right now because its a lot of innocent black people suffering for no reason and spreading the awareness and showing people we do care and help prevent it from keep happening.

# data[].attributes.body
Black Lives Matter important for the US right now and in the world is to be able to empower people to get his voice heard. along to be able to create a change for the future generation

# data[].attributes.body
The main claim as to why Black Lives Matter is that everyone should be "free," especially Black people who have been fighting for rights since the beginning. It's a call to action to change the world for the better.

# data[].attributes.body
Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza, and Opal Tometi hope for Black futures to have power to where they can have more freedom of their rights. Even to where people of color can achieve the dreams that the American Dream couldn´t do for people, even immigrants to survive. Immigrants all over the world who are doing the best that they can to make a living, to survive and also to thrive.We imagine black people living and thriving. And that -- that inspires me.

# data[].attributes.body
Alicia Garza's message is that racism should be addressed upwards instead of letting it trickle down. To let it bubble up by helping those who are more impacted and then it would finally benefit those at the top as well, not vice versa.

# data[].attributes.body
Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi believe that the BLM movement needs unity, acknowledgment, and knowledge. To educate others, including yourself and to work together even if those parts are small. Those small parts add up to something big and that something big can bring about change.

# data[].attributes.body
Black Lives Matter is important to the US to where the movement is taking to action to stand up against the oppression that has been avoiding the truth when the knowledge we can gain can make the true stance to fight for freedom, rights, and achieving the dreams that they can promise when it up to the people of color to make that stance.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is Black Lives Matter important for the US right now and in the world? (Add new understandings to original Do-Now response)

BLM is movement fighting more than just for black people, it's fighting for everyone as it is the true All lives matter. Black oppression is the root of racial oppression and cutting it down will brig down everything with it. BLM is a movement of equality.

# data[].attributes.body
Black Lives Matter is important because it portrays an important message to everyone bout the inequality Black people face. It matters for the US because in this country it is the worst they are treated.

# data[].attributes.body
-What led to this activism was how oppressed Black Americans were being treated.

- the difference between all lives matter and black lives matter is usually all live matter wants to go against black lives matter. All lives matter means that all lives, disregard race, matter equally, while black lives matter means black lives matter as much as other races.

-Media wanted justice for what happened to Trayvon yet they didn't get any because of their killer walking freely.

# data[].attributes.body
Black lives matter is tool to a call to action. Get their human rights to them and bring justice

BLM is important because it holds a massage demanding equality and freedom and justice for black people.

# data[].attributes.body
1. women who created #BLM have been ignored by the media and were being attacked by those who don't support BLM.
2. Racism, discrimination, and inequity lead to activism. Also people uniting and being brave and specking there words.
3. The difference between “All Lives Matter” and “Black Lives Matter" is that all lives is everyone and not everyone experiences the same treatment. when you say all lives matter its like your ignoring whats happening in black communities.

# data[].attributes.body
We have witness such a value of Black lives in our culture that we must remind ourselves and others of their worth. It is not meant to belittle any other ethnicity or culture.

# data[].attributes.body
The media's reaction to Trayvon Martin was that he was a victim of this violence, and many were upset. This movement is larger than social media, with individuals fighting for the rights and equality of all people of color rather than the promotion of public media.

"Black Lives Matter" and "All Lives Matter" The distinction is that All Lives Matter is intended to make individuals feel included, particularly white people, in reaction to BLM, a movement challenging the violence of our culture, which causes black people to internalize their "inferiority."

The media has neglected the women who founded #BLM, and those who oppose BLM have assaulted them.

# data[].attributes.body
What led to activism?
- The oppressive and dehumanizing treatment that was directed towards Black Americans resulted in activism.  Activists demanded social justice as a result of their protests.
How is this movement bigger than social media?
This movement goes beyond social media because we are only allowed to see some of the injustices that occur, not the entirety of them.  We tend to underestimate how constant and normalized brutality has become for Black lives.  However, by acknowledging a few instances, we can educate people on these occurrences to raise awareness and demand justice.
What's the difference between "All Lives Matter" and "Black Lives Matter?"
All Lives Matter indicates an equality for all people. However, all lives were never equal, therefore, it should be referred to as Black Lives Matter because they are the minority group who've received an unfair portion of freedom.

# data[].attributes.body
The main claim about Black Lives Matter is that it is a movement that was enacted for the purpose of raising awareness to injustices and demanding action.

# data[].attributes.body
Alicia Garza's message about racism today is that we need to eliminate the root of this issue in order to prevent it from rising again. Garza also states that if you identify as anything other than white, you are going to experience brutality. In contrast, have the white identity allows you unlimited freedom.

# data[].attributes.body
Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi believe that BLM requires awareness and collaboration in communities in order to tackle our current racial issue. We hold more power as an educated community than a broken union who fails to acknowledge the injustices in America.

# data[].attributes.body
Cullors, Garza, and Tometi hope that the Black future will consist of obtaining more freedom.  They also state that immigrant's will and ability to survive in America off of labor and a severe lack of rights is inspiring.  Overall, obtaining rights for minorities is their main hope.

# data[].attributes.body
BLM is of much importance to the US and the world because it is a movement that has succeeded in causing a global impact. Right now is the most educated and aware our society has been and we should continue to educate society in order to improve and reform policies and systems in America.
