Bar Lives Matter

An exaggerated, insensitive, and racist term used by bar owners in Texas during the COVID-19 crisis to protest small business closures. A blatant attempt to parody the Black Live Matter movement’s involvement in the international protests following the police related deaths of: George Floyd, Breonne Taylor, and Ahmad Arbury in May and June 2020.

Dr. Faucci: Bars are an unsafe hotzone for the growth of COVID-19

Governors: We need to keep our people safe. It’s hard to wear face masks in bars and restaurants responsibly so we will temporarily be mandating these businesses close.

Bar owners: you’re all communist trying to steal my rights, but BAR LIVES MATTER, and I’m going to get a haircut
