The Shoemaker Bugle

By Abby Corado

The Black Lives Matter Movement is not just some social media trend that comes and goes but is a progressive coalition that only grows stronger and inspires other minority groups to take action and fight for their rights.

The BLM political action committee has partnered up with the Working Families party announcing a legislative proposal. This legislative proposal, which will be in action in 2021, is supported by well known progressive figures Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar. This proposal provides the movement an opportunity of holding elected officials accountable for their actions while pushing for policy change in terms of equality.
