RACISM: BLACK LIVES DO MATTER!!

 Although we are in the 21st century,the world is still full of discrimination. There are many types of discrimination, but racism is one of them. Racism refers to an ideology which defends the superiority of a race in front of the others and the need to keep isolated from the rest of the world.

Recently, the need to separate a person from a community or a country just for his/her skin color, has led the police to murder to a black man called George Floyd. The act happened a few weeks ago. The police officer put his foot on the man´s neck and crushed him until he couldn't breathe. A video of the man saying his last words began to go viral through the social networks.

Thanks to this viral video a lot of people have published black photos on social media with the hashtag #Black lives matter, an international movement originated in United States, that started in 2013 for the death of a teenager, and almost 6 years later this movement has gained importance. Moreover, hundreds of people came out to protest in the streets. All this demonstrations have appeared in the rest of the world as a way to fight against racism and to support black people.

In conclusion, nobody should suffer discrimination just for his/her skin color and no one should fear for his life or his family life. Racism is a huge problem that is still happening and all of us should do something to stop it.
