<div class="col-12 col-lg-6">
<p>Corporate America has largely ignored the issues of police brutality and systemic racism. After the murder of George Floyd, thousands of black & white statements flooded social media, claiming that they are listening and will no longer be complicit. Some of these were specific, measurable, and actionable, and some of them were little more than a black box with a hashtag. We've gathered their initial responses and subsequent follow-ups so you can start sorting through which organizations are genuinely invested and interested in making a difference and which are not.</p>

<h2>What is corporate blackface?</h2>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12 col-lg-6">
<p>The idea that corporations publicly declare support of the Black Lives Matter movement, often with vague language, without actually committing to or implementing real, systemic change within their company to support Black employees, clients, customers, and community.</p>
