When you read it. I think that it really hints at the Black Lives Matter stands juxtaposed to is that we know that the laws we know that society recognise that black lives don't matter and that word became those 3 words. Became an that that really helped us Orient how we were feeling. I also want to think that like one of the around Trayvon, one of the great things was that for the first. You know, for the first time in a generation, really black folks were our own stories. We weren't really relying on traditional media to be able to tell our stories. And it's not like Trayvon was an anomaly. You know, black folks have. Been getting killed. Before, but you know the traditional to getting justice was try to hit up your local and media stations. Get them to actually the story.
