While much focus has been placed on Black Lives Matter activism in
response to police and civilian murders of Black men and women, the
contributors argue that Black activism in this era has addressed a
broader range of issues in a wide array of settings, both on the
street and inside institutions and communities. This Era of Black
Activism includes chapters on this era of Black activism from
2000-2022. It describes how previous activism has influenced this
generation, while showing innovations in political approaches,
leadership and organizational formations, and the use of social and
other media for movement purposes. Topics include the innovations
of #BlackLives Matter as a movement; the Florida activist group
Dream Defenders; policing and discrepancies in reporting on
Ferguson; the role of citizen cameras in Black activism; social
media for Black community coping and well-being; BIPOC Gay Power
activism vs. Gay Pride; academic activism by Black and White
professors; corporate responses to #BLM; #MeToo and healing within
the Black community; Black health activism and the Covid pandemic;
and bridging activism and policy for a new social contract. It also
offers an additional bibliography on Black activism for
environmental justice, athlete anti-racist activism, and the role
of the Black Church in this era.
