As the world turns, the United States as we know it is being ripped to shreds in hopes to be put back together with justice, peace, and equality across the board. Black, brown, and white people across the nation have gathered to protest against the injustice of the evil antics of the police force and it is like nothing we have ever witnessed before.
In solidarity with the Black Live Matter movement and the fight against racial inequality, #BlackOutTuesday has been announced as a day to pause and refrain from posting on social media, any radio play, or conducting business online in order to demonstrate power through silence. Many will take this time to educate themselves on ways to contribute to this meaningful change.
As blank black images are displayed across all social media platforms in solidarity, all music streams and YouTube streams will be suspended for the day, and any participation in classes/meeting will be dismissed as #BlackOutTuesday is a day set to finding different ways to help the black community during this daunting time.
Several companies have agreed to participate in #BlackOutTuesday including Fenty Beauty, Shady Records, Chase Bank, Lucky Brand, Sony Music and more as they will cease all business and explore ways to assist in the fight against racial inequality.
Spread the word as we are living in historical times.
Comment below on ways you will use your time during #BlackOutTuesday.
