Taylor Swift has joined many other artists speaking out in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Swift is urging her fans to fight for fundamental change in the American political system. “Racial injustice has been ingrained deeply into local and state governments, and changes MUST be made there,” she tweeted along with the BLM hashtag and three raised fists in various shades.
Swift added, “In order for policies to change, we need to elect people who will fight against police brutality and racism of any kind” and also posted a link to an article written by former Pres. Barack Obama posted on Medium entitled “How to Make This Moment the Turning Point for Real Change,” which advocates for major changes to deal with decades of systemic racism.
Swift also joined artists including Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Camila Cabello and more in encouraging fans to get out and vote.
