Research Proposal
1. Why does color matter when innocent lives are being ended for no reason?
2. What is it about the slogan Black Lives Matter that angers so many? Is the
rebuttal, All lives Matter too broad for a specific goal?
3. Before I started looking into this subject I was not sure what to think, I agreed
with the black lives matter but I didnt think that it excluded other lives as
well. Many people take on the assumption that because the slogan narrows
down to one race that it disregards all the other races and I do not think that
was the intent of the movement. The all lives matter campaign is here to
stress equality and trying to explain that it isnt just black lives that are being
murdered but other races too. But on the other hand the black lives matter
campaign is trying to remind the public and more so the police that black
lives matter too along with the all people. I have learned that the all lives
matter campaign is trying to focus on humans as a whole, but is that the
essential problem?
