JAKARTA - The band Fall Out Boy donated 100 thousand United States (US) dollars for the Black Lives Matter movement. This news was shared via social media on Monday, June 8 yesterday.

This fund was taken from the Fall Out Boy Fund, a program created by the Illinois rock band to help those in need. The $ 100,000 amount was distributed between two organizations: the National Bail Out and the Black Visions Collective.

In one picture, the band of Pete Wentz, Patrick Stump, Joe Trohman, and Andy Hurley wrote, “When you find something rot in the house, you don't just paint it. You tear it down and rebuild it for a better house. "

Later, Fall Out Boy expressed its support for the community of black people facing racial inequality, injustice, and police brutality.

Closing his statement, Fall Out Boy quoted Pearl S. Buck, a US writer.

The Fall Out Boy Fund was first established in 2017. At that time, the singer of Sugar We're Going Down created this program for the Chicago area by providing 20 thousand elementary school children with food education.

The Black Lives Matter movement expanded after George Floyd was killed by a number of police in Minneapolis on May 25. Fall Out Boy is the umpteenth artist who announced his donation after Kanye West, Marshmello, Doja Cat, and BTS. Not only donations, other musicians even took to the field and spread petitions through social media.
