What does BLM mean?

BLM stands for Black Lives Matter, which is a social justice movement that seeks to address systemic racism and police brutality against Black people in the United States and around the world. The movement was founded in 2013 after the acquittal of George Zimmerman, the man who killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed Black teenager, in Florida. The BLM movement has since become a global network of activists and organizations that advocate for Black rights and seek to challenge and dismantle systemic racism in all its forms. The movement gained renewed momentum in 2020 in the wake of the murder of George Floyd, a Black man, by a Minneapolis police officer, which sparked nationwide protests and a global conversation about racial inequality.

What is Canada Goose?

The Canada goose is a large wild goose species with a black head and neck, white patches on the face, and a brown body

Native to arctic and temperate regions of North America, its migration occasionally reaches northern Europe. It has been introduced to the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Argentina, Chile, and the Falkland Islands. Like most geese, the Canada goose is primarily herbivorous and normally migratory; it tends to be found on or close to fresh water.

Extremely successful at living in human-altered areas, Canada geese have proven able to establish breeding colonies in urban and cultivated areas, which provide food and few natural predators, and are well known as a common park species. Their success has led to them often being considered a pest species because of their depredation of crops and issues with their noise, droppings, aggressive territorial behavior, and habit of begging for food, especially in their introduced range. Canada geese are also among the most commonly hunted waterfowl in North America.
