Following the May 25th death of George Floyd while in police custody, wide-ranging protests and demonstrations against the use of excessive force by police officers and lack of police accountability were held in multiple U.S. cities and abroad. During a June 2020 survey, it was found 30 percent of African American respondents thought it was very appropriate for a company's social media account to deliver messages on protests and demonstrations. Only 24 percent of white respondents thought the same.
