George Floyd’s killing has brought the debate around racism under the spotlight yet again. The trend #BlackLivesMatter is all over social media. Lending their support to the protest against racism, and standing behind their employees of colour are various giants including Marvel Studios, Warner Bros, Paramount, Viacom CBS and many others.
Protest for justice has been on in several parts of the US for almost a week now. While many celebs have already participated physically or virtually, it is now the media giants that have come ahead to clear their stand.
Talking about the sad incident that took place and racism that still is a part of the society, streaming giant Netflix on their official Twitter handle wrote, “To be silent is to be complicit. Black lives matter. We have a platform, and we have a duty to our Black members, employees, creators and talent to speak up.”
