Black Lives Matter

No doubt, you have seen images or heard about current events in America where people have been protesting and rioting due to the killing of a black man named George Floyd. Today we have uploaded a video of a story called “Something Happened in our Town” to help our children understand the Black Lives Matter movement.  We would like you to watch and share this resource with the people you live with to enable discussions around these issues and events.  When the video has finished the following, activities are suggested:

• Make a poster
• Write a song or a poem
• Write a letter to an influential person
• Design an equality blanket

We would love to see what you do.  Please share on Twitter or email us at r.carson@knottyashprimary.co.uk

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is an international group that began in 2013 with the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter. They are against violence and racism towards black people. They became known for their street demonstrations.
