YouTubers are creating monetized videos to help protestors

In response to the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and countless others, protests have broken out worldwide to fight police brutality and systemic racism toward the Black community. And while many people have rushed to open their purses and donate to charities that are supporting the cause, not everyone has the means to do so. The good news? YouTubers have come up with a creative and genius way for people who are short on cash to donate to the Black Lives Matter movement. The idea is simple: YouTubers are uploading hour-long monetized videos promoting music and art made by Black artists. and donating 100 percent of the ad revenue made on said videos to organizations supporting Black lives and various other causes. According to Polygon, the first of these videos was created and uploaded by YouTuber Zoe Amira. Below, we’ve rounded up some other YouTube creators you can watch to help raise money to support Black lives and protestors standing up against systemic racism.
