It's about the hashtag #BlackLifeMatter not to be used - they ask not to use it for #BlackoutTuesday action.

 

Mika posted first his black square with #BlackLifeMatter. 

And he removed it quickly replacing by the hashtag #BlackoutTuesday.

 

Social Medias want to use #BlackLifeMatter hashtag for tracking posts concerning racist and police violence acts. 

Got it, thanks for explaining

Actually it started by two black women - marketing managers from Atlantic Records. And then it spread in different actions.

 

According to Wikipedia:

 

Blackout Tuesday is a collective action by elements of the music industry to protest racism and police violence.^[1] The action, organized in response to the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor,^[2] is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, June 2, 2020. Businesses taking part are encouraged to abstain from releasing music and other business operations.^[3]

The call to action was initiated by music executives Brianna Agyemang and Jamila Thomas, Senior Director of Marketing at Atlantic Records.^[4]

Businesses are participating in different manners. Black Americans are asked to not buy or sell on this day to show economic strength and unity. Spotify announced it would be adding a 8-minute and 46-second moment of silence to certain podcasts and playlists for the day.^[1]

On Instagram, users participate by refraining from posting other photos than a black square alongside the hashtag #blackouttuesday.^[5]

 

 

There are people are saying not to post the black square with the hashtag, because when you search for the tag on social media, the squares may ''hide'' important information about the action
