Issue #034
We are currently experiencing one of the most important social and civil movements of the last years. The unjustified death of George Floyd was the last drop on a bucket of racism and minority injustice that has been plaguing our society for a long time. I just hope that society moves to a better place than it is currently on and that we start to see meaningful changes, where people are not treated less because of the color of their skin, where they were born, or anything that make them a “minority”. We can be better than that.
The Gaming Pub stands with the #BlackLivesMatter movement and to honor that, this issue will have a special section dedicated to everything going on in the games industry and the movement.
