Ayo Tometi, formerly known as Opal Tometi, co-founder of Black Lives Matter, speaks at the Web Summit technology conference in Lisbon, Nov. 1, 2021. The Black Lives Matter movement hits a milestone on Thursday, July 13, 2023, marking 10 years since its 2013 founding in response to the acquittal of the man who fatally shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. BLM co-founders Tometi, Patrisse Cullors and Alicia Garza — the three activists are credited with using the phrase as an affirmation and an organizing strategy — initially pledged to build a decentralized organization governed by the consensus.
