The Birth of #BlackLivesMatter
On the Media | Jul 17, 2015
This week marks two years since the origin of the movement and slogan #BlackLivesMatter. Born after George Zimmerman was acquitted in the death of Trayvon Martin in Florida, it's been used around the world -- although not always as its creators intended. Patrisse Cullors is one of three co-founders of Black Lives Matter, along with Alicia Garza and Opal Tometi. She speaks with Brooke about how she came to put the hashtag in front of the phrase, and how its meaning has changed.
