ABC/Fred LeeFall Out Boy has announced a $100,000 donation to organizations involved in the Black Lives Matter Movement through the band’s Fall Out Boy Fund charity organization.
“When you discover rot deep with your house you don’t just paint over it,” the “Dance, Dance” rockers say in a statement. “You dismantle it and rebuild a better house.”
The band continues, “We support the black community in the struggle against racial inequality, injustice and police brutality by committing $100,000 from the Fall Out Boy Fund this summer.”
To start, Fall Out Boy will be making donations to the organizations National Bail Out and Black Visions Collective.
“We realize this is a marathon and not a sprint,” Fall Out Boy says. “[We] plan to continue and expand our support.”
