By: Jerome Jolee

Narrated by: Eric Burr

Why Do Black Lives Matter? is an audiobook that discusses the Black Lives Matter movement and how racism hasn't gone away; it just takes different forms and changes as the world changes. This audiobook has been described by many as "a call to action for all of us" and an "urgent wake-up call" to people in power. The authors show listeners how they can help make change happen in their communities with tangible steps everyone can take.

Black Lives Matter is a movement that was founded in 2013 by Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi. The organization started as a hashtag on social media to protest the killing of Trayvon Martin and has grown into what some call an international human rights movement. This audiobook talks about how racism hasn’t gone away; it just takes different forms and changes as the world changes. It also discusses various ways that people can be racist even if they don't intend to be - something that many white Americans struggle with understanding or coming to terms with.
