In the summer of 2016, to show support for the Black Lives Matter demonstrations happening all over the country, I created this LEGO “Black Lives Matter” sign. After the pointless death of George Floyd in Minnesota a few days ago, protests and demonstrations have been going on all over once again, and I feel it’s time for me to repeat this message.
Black Lives Matter sign made from LEGO bricks.
My heart goes out to all the loved ones of George Floyd and all others who have lost their lives because of their race. The police who are meant to protect the public are too often guilty of disrespectful and violent behavior towards people of color. As a white man I have no way to know what it must feel like, but my heart aches for those who are obliged to live in fear of violence or death any time they have an interaction with law enforcement. We as a people should be better than this.
If you’d like to build your own copy of this sign, see the original post which has instructions and a PDF.
