American Samoa for Black Lives Matter

Amerika Sāmoa for Black Lives Matter

Peaceful protest in Utulei, American Samoa in solidarity for Black lives, and justice for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Elijah McClain, and literally too many other humans who didn’t deserve to have their lives taken from them.

Shout out to the event organizers, volunteers, and participants for an inspiring lineup of speakers, petitions, and donations made directly to Black Lives Matter organization, and to everyone who drove by and waved and honked to show their support.
