Wait, "Zuckerberg posted last night that FB is committing an additional $10M to groups working on racial justice."

No amount of money can absolve the fact that his inaction on Trump's tweets is directly putting Black lives and our very democracy in the line of fire. #bloodmoney https://twitter.com/IAmAmnaNawaz/status/1267400262588735490
In the past two weeks, Zuckerberg has refused to take down Trump tweets that clearly violate Facebook’s policies against voter suppression and incitement to violence, policies that we have worked for years to put in place to protect our communities and our democracy.
We have seen the profoundly harmful impact of Facebook’s inaction against authoritarian or jingoistic heads of state around the world, from Myanmar to the Philippines to India. And 2016 was but a glimpse of how Facebook can distort our election and democracy in the US in 2020.
I don’t say any of this lightly as someone who’s insisted on the importance of the @civilrightsorg coalition engaging Facebook in a civil rights audit, helping to craft policies and push enforcement against voter suppression, hate, violence on the platform because of the stakes.
