How it continued...

This page outlines the events that fueled the growth of the Black Lives Matter movement following its inception.

In 2014, two high-profile deaths of African-Americans due to police brutality further galvanized the movement:

  1. Eric Garner died from an illegal chokehold applied by police.
  2. Michael Brown was shot and killed by a police officer.

The death of George Floyd in 2020 brought international attention to racism in American society, with the hashtags #blacklivesmatter and #blm going viral. In 2021, Derek Chauvin, the officer responsible for Floyd's death, was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 22 years in prison.

Highlight: The series of high-profile deaths of Black individuals at the hands of police demonstrates the ongoing nature of the issues that the Black Lives Matter movement addresses.

The Beginning

This page traces the origins of the Black Lives Matter movement to the shooting of Trayvon Martin in February 2012.

George Zimmerman, a white man, shot and killed Trayvon Martin, a Black teenager, claiming self-defense. The incident gained national attention and sparked demonstrations across the United States. In April 2012, Zimmerman was charged with second-degree murder but was acquitted in July 2013. This acquittal led to the creation of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Example: The Trayvon Martin case exemplifies the racial injustices that the Black Lives Matter movement seeks to address, particularly in the criminal justice system.

Highlight: The acquittal of George Zimmerman served as a catalyst for the formation of the Black Lives Matter movement, highlighting the need for organized action against racial injustice.

  1. George Floyd: Suspected of forgery, killed by police.
