Black Lives Matter | Toonami

"A little background: this piece came together because a group of Toonami staff came to me and asked, 'Are we going to address this clearly?' I agreed with them that we should. This piece was produced, co-written, and edited by our Black staff members. They all did an amazing job. Special shoutout to Gill Austin who wrote the backbone and shepherded it home as well. I work with some very good people and I hope you felt our sincerity, even if it made you uncomfortable. Thanks for watching, as always. We at #toonami know we can only do so much with our platform but we wanted to be clear what our little block stands for. Equality, compassion, love and strength are at the core of so much of our programming and at the core of the message we want Toonami to deliver." - Jason Demarco (SVP/Creative Director, Adult Swim & co-creator, Toonami)
