Big Majority Support Black Lives Matter

According to a Washington Post-ABC News poll, a majority of Americans support the Black Lives Matter movement and a record 69% say black people and other minorities are not treated as equal to white people in the criminal justice system.

But the public generally opposes calls to shift some police funding to social services or remove statues of Confederate generals or presidents who enslaved people.

A new Wall Street Journal-NBC News poll finds 56% holds the view that American society is racist.

Nearly three-quarters of Americans, 71%, believe that race relations are either very or fairly bad, a 16-point increase since February.
