Supplemental context
Black Lives Matter's 2017 historical account identifies Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi as the organizers behind the 2013 project. It describes a response to George Zimmerman's acquittal in the killing of Trayvon Martin and explains how a hashtag became a tool for organizing. The account also emphasizes leadership by Black women and queer and trans people. For future readers, this is evidence of a movement's self-understanding as well as a history of digital communication. The words on a sign connect online language with meetings, local networks and public action, but no single organization represents every participant.
Creator/community: Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, Opal Tometi and diverse Black Lives Matter organizers Place/era: United States; project launched in 2013, with wider international organizing
Context and limits
The source is an advocacy organization's dated self-history; its membership figures and institutional structure are not asserted as current. A broad movement, local groups and the named foundation should not be conflated. The original's millions is not independently quantified here. Generated signs and background pictures are not authentic protest evidence or organizational endorsement.
