The Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement is a social movement advocating for non-violent civil disobedience in protest against incidents of police brutality and all racially motivated violence against Black people. Founded in the United States in 2013, this movement has gone global and has only grown larger as years have passed. As more police brutality has been caught on tape, the civil unrest continues. These confessions are from people who have participated in BLM protests. See what they have to say about their experiences.

My work told us that we’re not allowed to attend any protests or post about it on social media. I went to the BLM protest in Portland and got fired from my job over it. No regrets

Went to my first BLM protest today to see protestor-police interactions first hand. It truly was a peaceful march without vandalism until they tried to arrest the leader using the national guard.
