It was the great turning point in a history marked by racial inequality and police brutality, leading to a wave of 4,700 protests in the U.S. since the first one in Minneapolis on May 26. Now the Black Lives Matter movement has gone far beyond iconic events like the 2017 Women&#8217;s March to become the largest anti-racist rebellion to date.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-134625 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/highxtar-black-lives-matter-march-1.jpg\" alt=\"Black Lives Matter movement\" width=\"814\" height=\"543\" srcset=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/highxtar-black-lives-matter-march-1.jpg 814w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/highxtar-black-lives-matter-march-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/highxtar-black-lives-matter-march-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/highxtar-black-lives-matter-march-1-508x339.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 814px) 100vw, 814px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>According to polls shared by the <strong>New York Times<\/strong> on July 3, <strong>26 million people attended<\/strong> <strong>marches<\/strong> during the current wave of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/cop-one-t-shirts-to-support-the-blm-protests\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BLM<\/a> <\/strong>protests.
