The article explores the significant decrease in support for the Black Lives Matter movement since its peak in 2020, emphasizing the need for long-term engagement in social justice efforts. Researchers from Stanford and Yale investigated the mindsets influencing allies in social change, identifying four distinct perspectives: impact, dependency, egocentric, and altercentric. An impact mindset, which encourages individuals to consider how their actions affect others, is pivotal in encouraging continuous support for social justice even after widespread visibility fades.
An impact mindset inspires individuals to think about how their actions shape the outcomes of others, promoting continued engagement in social change over the long-term.
Research indicates that while support for the Black Lives Matter movement has waned since 2020, there is a critical need for sustained commitment to racial justice.
