The video game industry is being criticized for showing solidarity with the Black community “too little, too late.” Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, and Activision have all put out statements of solidarity with the Black community, but they’re being accused of doing just the “bare minimum” and for releasing “clueless and hollow” statements—that critics say are not specific enough about how they’ll be contributing, or “further plans for direct action or lasting changes.” Those criticizing the gaming industry are also calling them out for past silence and not confronting their own complicity in the issue.
