Ashton Kutcher, Kate Beckinsale, More Stars Slam All Lives Matter Comments On Instagram
When you support All Lives Matter, you’re denying the Black Lives Matter movement. That’s what celebrities like Ashton Kutcher and Kate Beckinsale, and Seth Rogen are trying to get through to fans who can’t understand why the phrase is offensive. It boils down to a misunderstanding: when someone says “black lives matter,” they in no way are saying that “black lives matter more than any other lives.” The phrase is just pointing out that in the United States, the lives of black people are severely undervalued, especially when it comes to interactions with the police.
