Just after the deadly anti-police violence in Dallas on Thursday, Twitter has rewarded the Black Lives Matter movement with their own custom emoji. The hashtag #blacklivesmatter cannot be typed without the emoji automatically appearing on the screen.
Twitter decided not to devote any symbol or emoji to pro-police hashtags.
#BlackLivesMatter advocates dignity, justice and freedom. Not murder.
