Em abril de 1984, Pelé estampou a capa da revista Placar com uma camisa da campanha das Diretas Já. O movimento reivindicava o fim da ditadura instaurada em 1964 e exigia a volta das eleições diretas para presidente.
Discurso do Pelé após seu milésimo gol:
"Faço um apelo para que nunca se esqueçam das crianças pobres, dos necessitados e das casas de caridade. Vamos defender os pobres, vamos defender as criacinhas necessitadas"

Meet @AdamStewart, Deputy Chairman of @SandalsResorts. Adam posted for #BlackOutTuesday in support of Black Lives, but has no problem funding Fox News network which promotes hate, white nationalist rhetoric, conspiracy theories, and #COVID19 misinformation. #BoycottSandals
@AdamStewart of Sandals Resort sells butler services. Yes, you too can experience domestic labor descended from Africa. The rich folks say it’s “amazing.”
In an appearant play on “once you go Black,” Adam tweeted, “Once you go Butler you never go back.” #BoycottSandals

It’s nothing...just @AdamStewart of Sandals Resorts culturally appropriating Bob Marley to market his Billionaire family’s vacation spots.
Does he think one of his Jamaican employees dancing with him makes it ok? Book now to celebrate Bob Marley’s legacy? Gross. #BoycottSandals

Me iba a callar esto, pero mira, no. El martes pasado publiqué un teaser en IG anunciando que lanzábamos un nuevo single digital. Hacía días que no entraba en las redes sociales. Cuando lo hago y me doy una vuelta por IG, veo un montón de publicaciones en negro. No entendía nada.
Hasta que vi lo del #BlackOutTuesday. Y me pareció una campaña estupenda, ¿a quién no? Pero también pensé en la cantidad de campañas que colectivos antirracistas de todo el estado español ponen en marcha para visibilizar el racismo institucional de nuestras propias ciudades.
Y recordé haber pedido apoyo a compañer@s de oficio para que las apoyasen. "No sé, no es nuestra lucha", me decían unos. "Es que va a parecer que lo hacemos aprovechando nuestra proyección pública" (¡pues claro, joder, es eso!, pensaba yo), decían otros. Alguno dijo: "Paso".
THREAD: Leftism isn’t a political ideology anymore, it’s a religion complete with heavily policed virtues that determine your purity, public rituals, confession, holy war, penance, daily proclamations that validate your loyalty, shunning, excommunication and evangelism.
PUBLIC RITUALS
- Look no further than the Democrat stunt wearing Kenta cloth to signal their dedication to the cause
- Democrats coordinating to all wear white at the State of the Union address

CONFESSION AND PENANCE
- Guilty white leftists apologizing for their original sin of being born with white privilege and giving money to make up for it
- You must make up for violations against the doctrine by apologizing in a humiliating manner (see Mayor Jacob Frey)

This is not a witch-hunt. This is going to be revelation on exactly why this behaviour, the institutional racism within my industry of work won’t be tolerated any longer. I understand many watching these next tweets have existing relationships....
and I completely understand also that there are those who will chose to observe rather than engage in any part of what I’m going to say next. But I’m not having a discussion on the timeline about this other than the solution..
You have no right to talk on the validity of what I’m about to say. If you’ve followed me for a while or actually know me. I’m a balanced person and I am too, empathetic and considerate of different perspectives. Not just my own.

The Need for Diversity
• Marketing plays a role in how brands are perceived
• If management is of the same ethnicity, it's harder for them to tell a diverse story
• People create stories from their background

Trickle-Down Effect
• Lack of diversity has a trickle-down effect in marketing

10 minute read on historical recap of slavery, suppression and oppression and why saying "All Lives Matter" is just plain ignorant.
A history of slavery.
On Aug. 20, 1619, after a century of the trans-atlantic slave trade, the first enslaved Africans arrived at Jamestown. About 150 of the original 350 captives died at sea. Of those captives, roughly 20 were from modern day Angola.
49ers Nick Bosa participated in #BlackOutTuesday writing “#ripgeorgefloyd.”
He also follows secretive, private Instagram accounts like “Too Savage For Democrats” which posted a white power hand symbol with the caption “getting a workout in while America burns to the ground.”

I did not participate in #BlackOutTuesday . While the spirit underlying it is commendable, I do not think you can enhance your awareness of such a complex and difficult issue by sharing a black screen.

Rather, I challenge every person and every institution who made a statement declaring their anti-racism this week to reflect on systematic patterns of how black people and other under-represented minorities are weaved into the fabric of their personal and professional lives.
I have lived in Canada for 23 years. Outside of law enforcement (which is a large group that extends beyond police), I have VERY RARELY experienced direct acts of overt racism from individuals in a predictable manner i.e. when they occur they tend to be sporadic and infrequent.

Não é de hoje que as marcas enfrentam o desafio de se posicionar e se comunicar em uma sociedade cada vez mais dividida. A pandemia da COVID-19, e a crise econômica agravada por ela, se somam à crise política no Brasil e geram uma panela de pressão de consequências imprevisíveis
De um lado, o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) coordena uma ação contra a disseminação de fake news, o grupo Sleeping Giants identifica e cobra empresas que anunciam em sites de extrema-direita e a timeline do Instagram se enche de quadrados pretos com a #blackouttuesday.
BLACKOUT TUESDAY - A STATEMENT
Yesterday the Music Venue Trust team stepped back from our own messaging and campaigning. We chose to do this as part of a collective initiative by the music sector to reflect on the continuing challenge of racism in our society and in our industry.
Yesterday the Music Venue Trust team stepped back from our own messaging and campaigning. We chose to do this as part of a collective initiative by the music sector to reflect on the continuing challenge of racism in our society and in our industry.
Our team chose to be silent in our messaging for a day so we could pause and properly listen to BAME colleagues. We wanted to learn from their experiences and reflect on what we do as an organisation to acknowledge their contribution, support and promote their work.
Reflecting on what we learned, our team has chosen some some articles and comments from BAME colleagues that we felt were helpful to us and important to read, understand and act upon. The first of these is by Keith Harris and you can read it here: musicweek.com/management/rea…
“The fact is I could have been George Floyd. I could have been Ahmaud Arbery. I could have been Christian Cooper.” VERY powerful, brave and important piece by @JeremyButler01, CEO of @IAVA. He is a leader America needs to hear now. #BlackOutTuesday iava.org/blog/read-why-…
“It’s about being black while driving, black while shopping, black while doing anything. And yet, I am proud to wear the Navy uniform. As a veteran of the Iraq War...my love of this country and my desire to serve it both in and out of uniform has not changed.” -@JeremyButler01
“But love of country and patriotism don’t mean unconditional loyalty. Dedication to service does not mean blind servitude. It means acknowledging that we live in a deeply flawed country while also working hard to make it better.” -@JeremyButler01
They want us to riot, they want us to loot, & vandalize! We are being manipulated! Continue to fight for justice but don't fall for the trap! Stop the violence! If you see them trying to incite, EXPOSE THEM! Retweet this! Share this! Tag this! #BlackOutTuesday #ItsASetUp
They are trying to vilify our cause!
They think we will fall for their game... WE WILL NOT!!!

Lo que está pasando es una atrocidad, pero no es novedad. Lo que está pasando es un detonante que funciona como una alarma más, y lo que sigue ya no tiene que ver con distinciones de color nada más.
Si se ponen a leer los comentarios de casi cualquier Tweet o publicación de los últimos tiempos van a notar que se naturalizó ridiculizar y disminuir al resto. Las redes sociales se convirtieron en circo y coliseo, en donde el atacado siempre queda indefenso.

To be silent is to be complicit.
This is not “my lane,” but if we are to bring about meaningful change to racial injustice in this country, we must all step outside of our comfort lanes, speak up, and most importantly, take action (more in the thread). #BlackOutTuesday

In the long term, I recognize representation is hugely important in society & in science. I'll be doubling down my efforts to feature minorities and women in my videos. It's the RIGHT thing to do.
I'll be spending today: Listening. Learning. Planning. Uplifting. #BlackOutTuesday

I’m here in @RedwoodCity where most downtown businesses have boarded up their storefronts as hundreds gather at the San Mateo County courthouse square for the #georgefloydprotest. Follow my thread here for live coverage of the protest. Via @mercnews
Speakers are gathered at the top of the steps of a boarded up old San Mateo County courthouse in #redwoodcity. There are hundreds of people gathered attentively listening to speakers straining their voices to speak without speakers. Via @mercnews
Look at this crowd here for the #redwoodcityprotest! No huge police presence yet but there are some stationed next to the courthouse.

Gran hilo sobre la esclavitud negra en la América Española:
La esclavitud y no solamente la esclavitud africana negra, sino la esclavitud de europeos por europeos fue muy usual en el Viejo Mundo.
Al final del hilo el detalle de las imágenes.

Al final del hilo el detalle de las imágenes.
Recordando el caso de los millones de esclavos irlandeses que fueron traídos a América por Inglaterra, así como de otras partes del Viejo Continente, en especial del este europeo, y recordando que la esclavitud no era un patrimonio exclusivo de la Monarquía Hispánica, claro.
La cual por cierto reconocía la esclavitud blanca (moriscos entre aquellos) en sus leyes de Indias, la cual se produjo a pesar de y no por y para la Monarquía.

The chronic dehumanization of black men, women, and children in the United States is anything but new. Society stereotypes black people as dangerous, lazy, and feeble-minded, among other things; and those stereotypes creep into our public policies and institutional practices. 1/6
The government that's supposed to protect and serve black Americans takes our labor and our tax dollars and then treats us like second class citizens. As long as black people have lived in the United States, we have had to fight for every bit of progress that we have achieved—2/6
emancipation from slavery, the right to vote, the right to vote again (because the 15th Amendment of 1870 wasn’t enough to ensure black suffrage…it would take nearly another century to secure that basic right of citizenship), the end of Jim Crow segregation, 3/6
