I mean what is it going to do? Raising awareness is fair enough, but I highly doubt more than half of the people who uploaded a black square actually care about the situation and are only doing it to make their Instagram feeds look good for one day.

I tend to think about it as the minimal effort necessary to make them feel like they did their part.
the movement doesn’t have leadership like Martin Luther king. So they come up with useless shit like this. There needs to be boycotts, and the black community needs to stop the black on black crime. If they want real change to fight the system.
TO damn little to late. People talk change but everyone's full of it. No one wants real change that means changing social standing and making it difficult. No the black screen proves nothing other then people are supporting the flavor of the week
Most of them are attention Seekers like influencers

Is that about that black guy that got killed by that white cop? I don't think it does much. It's similar to the people burning police cars. They're paid for by tax dollars.

Instagram seems like a pretty stupid app and when people use it I think of them as self-important faggots.

Further evidence that Instagram is leading our country into Idiocracy. Oh wait! We're already there!

I already gave my thoughts on this in another post.
But bottom line it's stupid and doesn't do Jack crap.
and yet, right wing people, can't stay 3 months, inside, because of a virus
while, anne frank, HAD to stay in an attic for 2 years
If we’re lucky we’ll be able to replicate those times
replicate what times?
Those beautiful Anne frank times of course
where she had to stay in an attic for 2 years?
Yeah why not
uh. because she was fearing for her life, of being persecuted, for who she is
Keep in mind, im jewish, myself
I'm an agnostic jew, but, still considered a jew
Oh Jewish people are always getting got. There blaming this whole riot mess on you guys right now.
oh, i know. everyone always blames us, because to them, we seem "invincible"
we're not
Naww they blame you cause God is real and the devil controls the world, that pretty much all it boils down too.
they blame us, because we seem invincible to them
im agnostic. i question the existence of god, i just celebrate jewish high holidays and take the bible with a grain of salt
It was just for one day and it gets the message out
It's just bandwagon following to make it look like you care.
If that’s how they want to show their support then that’s up to them
I unfollowed everyone who posted that crap. Good riddance!
Most whites that have done this have been racist before just being a sheep to the rest of the world
Their best profile picture to date...
A black screen is either out of ignorance, or they have nothing to say. A pretty stupid thing to deliberately post
I would hope they had posted it in a sincere manner. If so I would think they're an empathetic person.
It's a little too much.
