Timeline of the #BlackLivesMatter Movement
The Past is Not the Past
Each event within the timeline has contributed to the creation of the Black Lives Matter Movement. There are so many moments throughout history that could have been included, but as a group, we decided on the most important events that we wanted to present as a part of our project. We, as a society, need to work together to create a world where black Americans are treated with the respect and basic rights that they are entitled to as human beings. This violence needs to end now.

We advocate and remember those who have been killed due to police brutality.
