Amazon's Jeff Bezos proclaims support for Black Lives Matter

This is sure an interesting Friday, with Reddit and Facebook and now Amazon CEOs and founders speaking about Black Lives Matter and the protests surrounding the police killing of George Floyd.

I got this email from a customer and wanted to share my response, writes Bezos on Instagram.

He's responding to an Amazon customer who is upset the company is selling Black Lives Matter themed items.

I have to disagree with you. 'Black Lives Matter' doesn't mean that other lives don't matter. Black Lives Matter speaks to racism and the disproportionate risk that Black people face in our law enforcement and justice system, writes Jeff Bezos in the post.
