10 Etsy items you can buy to support the Black Lives Matter movement

This past summer, the world’s largest cities were greeted with protesters supporting Black Lives Matter, who were fed up with the systemic injustices faced by Black Americans at the hands of law enforcement. The protests began after the murder of George Floyd, and they still continue after countless other killings, shootings and acts of violence.

It’s important to continue to protest and support Black people and minority communities. Here’s an updated list of charities and organizations that are fighting against systemic racism. You can still support the movement by donating money to nonprofits, volunteering, sharing resources on social media and continuing the conversation with friends and family.
