"Blackout Tuesday is an opportunity to amplify black voices, support black business owners, etcetera -- not mute them," Woods tells ET. "Don't post the black picture for Blackout Tuesday UNLESS you are going to share some useful information on your stories/on other grid posts. "Don't post the black picture and then an hour later post something about your personal life/a selfie/OOTD, etc. "I don't think the movement has ever been this powerful. We don't need to slow it down by posting nothing.
