Black Lives Matter protests that have erupted across the United States may be the largest demonstrations in the country's history, with upwards of 26million people participating. In comparison, roughly three million to five million people came out for the Woman's March of 2017 on a single day. That event was highly organized in contrast with BLM demonstrations, which have been much more organic. More than 4,700 demonstrations have happened in the United States since May 26, averaging out to roughly 140 per day. With the coronavirus pandemic also ravaging the United States, people are also having more time to engage in activism.
