Kandi Burruss is explaining to people what the movement called #TheShowMustBNePaused means. This is something that takes place today, and you can read all the details in Kandi’s post below.
‘Someone asked me what does #theshowmustbepaused mean. To me, it means to allow June 2nd to be a day to support the Black community. Put a pause on work. Put a pause on self-promotion. Support the movement that is happening to make a change in this country. If I post anything on June 2nd it’s gonna be for and about the movement or the progression of black people.
#theshowmustbepaused#BlackOutTuesday#BlackLivesMatter,’ Kandi captioned her post.

This post managed to trigger a massive debate in the comments.
A follower said: ‘It’s June 2nd now…. How about let’s plan ahead and execute something for June 19th,’ and someone else posted this message: ‘Nah, homie. Why would we disconnect in the middle of fighting for our lives? Much love, though.’
A fan asked: ‘And how does this help?? Maybe get off social media and actually take action???’ and someone else said: ‘Let’s really make this PAUSE count by actually remembering to NOT LOG ON to any social media. LETS ALL DISCONNECT ALL THE WAY = Give these corporations NO DATA!!!! Let’s GO.’
An Instagrammer said: ‘I’m confused…not being funny…but what is the expected outcome of this?? Like Wed Morning…what next?? I wanna support, just dont understand what this is about,’ and another follower posted this: ‘Wrong answer! We can’t disconnect! We have to keep telling the story because no one else is telling the truth about what’s really happening.’
Someone else said: ‘We should ALL black out. America doesn’t want to listen to us, let’s show what happens when we all go Black.’
