Share of adults who support the Black Lives Matter movement U.S. 2020-2023
In April 2023, 51 percent of Americans said that they strongly or somewhat supported the Black Lives Matter movement in the United States. This is a decrease from June 2020 when 67 percent of Americans said that they strongly or somewhat supported the Black Lives Matter movement. The increased support in that year may be attributed to the murder of George Floyd in April 2020, which caused public outrage throughout the nation.
