Q:<\/strong> How is Social Justice and Black Lives Matter affecting your life today? R:<\/strong> Black Lives Matter is a movement which affects how I approach police because the meaning of the movement focuses on treatment African Americans have endured from police. Social Justice affects\u00a0the opportunities\u00a0I receive, as I hope to be a part of a society in the future that ensures all people receive equal opportunity. – Joshua Y.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
