I searched, and didn’t see this anywhere else. Did this just go up on their homepage? I haven’t looked at Amazon in a while. Just pulled up the app on my phone and there it is.

Of course those bastards support black lies matter, Amazon wants all the retail stores to be looted and set on fire and hopefully never to reopen again. That's their competition.
If you're not virtue signaling, you're not one of the "cool" kids.
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

Sure they do. Amazon has the best trucks for looters to bust out the windshield and steal all the stuff.

Amazon donates $10 million to organizations supporting justice and equity Donations to the NAACP, National Urban League, Thurgood Marshall College Fund, and UNCF, among others, seek to support education and justice for Black communities across the U.S. By Amazon on June 03, 2020 Facebook Share Twitter Share Linked In Share Email Share The inequitable and brutal treatment of Black and African Americans is unacceptable.
We believe Black lives matter. We stand in solidarity with our Black employees, customers, and partners, and are committed to helping build a country and a world where everyone can live with dignity and free from fear.
As part of that effort, Amazon will donate a total of $10 million to organizations that are working to bring about social justice and improve the lives of Black and African Americans. Recipients—selected with the help of Amazon's Black Employee Network (BEN)—include groups focused on combating systemic racism through the legal system as well as those dedicated to expanding educational and economic opportunity for Black communities.
ACLU Foundation Brennan Center for Justice Equal Justice Initiative Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law NAACP National Bar Association National Museum of African American History and Culture National Urban League Thurgood Marshall College Fund UNCF (United Negro College Fund) Year Up In addition, BEN will receive a grant to fund local organizations that support education and racial equality initiatives in communities across the country where our employees live and work.
"Amazon’s leadership and BEN have worked hand-in-hand to identify organizations in the Black community that make a difference and will contribute to them in a meaningful way. In addition to the organizations listed, we will work with our chapters to identify local groups to support," said Angelina Howard, president of BEN. "We will continue these conversations about how Amazon can support employees and the entire Black community beyond these tragic recent events."
Together, we stand in solidarity with the Black community—our employees, customers, and partners—in the fight against systemic racism and injustice.

I saw it only because you pointed it out. When I go to Amazon, my eyes ignore everything below the very top line menu, where I can search, access everything in my account, or look at my orders.
When in doubt, mumble

Doesn’t seem very virtuous. If they’re suggesting that white, hispanic, asian, Tobago, or whatever lives aren’t as worthy as black lives, that’s a racist philosophy!

It’s the trend. Remember how EVERYONE had to send you the COVID statement email 12 weeks ago? By golly, we re doing something all right, we care, blah, blah, blah.
COVID was a test run of things to come. Expect the virtue signaling, mask wearing lefties to turn it up to 11.

All those COVID emails were great. It gave me a opportunity to hit unsubscribe to every single one.
