A message from Billboard. How to help:

Beyonce performs on stage during"The Formation World Tour" at Levi's Stadium on Sept. 17, 2016 in Santa Clara, Calif.

While citizens nationwide are protesting the death of George Floyd, who died after a Minneapolis officer kneeled on his neck for nine minutes, musicians and others in the music industry are also speaking up and looking for ways to help end racism and bring about accountability.Music companies and musicians are calling for a day for everyone to"disconnect from work and reconnect with our community" on June 2, which is being dubbed".

Among those who have shared the message are Apple Music's Ebro Darden, Atlantic Records, Capitol Records, 2K Management, independent distributor Empire, and many more."We need justice for George Floyd," Beyonce began a May 29 Instagram video, urging her followers to sign petitions that will help seek justice.

Man if only billboard wasn’t racist and xenophobic itself

So where are you donating the $$? To what specific goals?

No longer

we just ask for justice nothing else really has to end racism

This the first time i have some sort of respect to billboard

Where was this energy when you laid off most of your staff? Including countless black and brown writers?

Do you still have black employees Them check in on them.

Don’t believe this! Billboard’s staff heavily discriminates against Black artists and writers! Sit in on a few of their editorial meetings!

Well rehire the ones you fired.
