The Video Game Industry vs Racism STAND FOR WHAT YOU MAKE THEM
As a show of solidarity, some companies in the video game industry have joined the protests over the death of George Floyd
The death or rather murder of George Floyd has shocked and outraged everyone. However, the United States is going through serious conflicts that have touched all the accounts of its social structure, its damaged economy, with worrying unemployment rates, policies divided by a man named Donald Trump and now, the cultural issue is causing outrage and protests.
It was as if a social snowball that was already dissatisfied and worried about tomorrow, grew and gathered strength as it entered a path where it is not possible to escape. It seems that the Covid-19 pandemic has brought out the union and protests in the United States, and today they make us see how fragile life is.
As a show of solidarity, some companies in the video game industry have joined the protests over the death of George Floyd. The industry giant PlayStation announced that the launch of the PS5 will be delayed.
Hemos pospuesto el evento de PS5 programado para el 4/06.
Sabemos que los jugadores alrededor del mundo están entusiasmados por los juegos de PS5 pero sentimos que no es el momento para celebrar, y por ahora queremos esperar y dejar que voces más importantes sean escuchadas. https://t.co/UrX42z3C0F

Another franchise that delayed launch was the Electronic Arts giant, who canceled the presentation of the Madden NFL 21 title, and who also spoke out forcefully against racism, reaffirmed his support to eradicate this social evil.
George Floyd’s death will not be in vain. The news that shook the world, caused millions of people to take to the streets of more than 75 cities in the United States to protest and speak out against any act of racism and discrimination. Let’s hope that the Covid-19 shocks and deaths from racism are the incentive that society needs to finally start a change in the way we are living.
