Black Lives Matter Movement and Racial Justice

This episode explores the rise and impact of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, which began in 2013 and gained global prominence after the murder of George Floyd in 2020. The podcast highlights how BLM shed light on systemic racism, police brutality, and social inequality affecting communities of color, particularly in the U.S.

We examine the movement’s global influence, its role in driving police reform, corporate accountability, and demands for equity in education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. While progress has been made, challenges such as political polarization, resistance to change, and structural barriers remain. The episode concludes by affirming that the pursuit of racial justice is a continuing journey—one that calls for active participation and sustained efforts.
