Black Lives Matter: resources for young people

On 25 May 2020, George Floyd was killed by police in Minneapolis, USA, after being detained on suspicion of using false money. His death sparked mass activism across the world, including the UK, in support of anti-racism.  

These activities help young people to understand and discuss the current situation. Learners will reflect and listen to other’s experience as they explore the people behind the news.
