How did the black pledge start?

The Black Pledge, also known as the Black Lives Matter pledge, emerged in response to systemic racism and police violence against Black individuals. It gained prominence after high-profile incidents such as the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and George Floyd, which sparked widespread protests and calls for justice. The pledge serves as a commitment by individuals and organizations to actively support racial equality and challenge injustice in various forms. It reflects a broader movement advocating for the recognition and protection of Black lives and rights.
