On Thursday, OKCupid announced that it's rolling out a #BlackLivesMatter badge in a dozen countries. Users can obtain the badge by answering yes to the question, "Do you want to support the #BlackLivesMatter movement by adding a badge to your profile?"

In addition to the badge, OKCupid has added matching questions related to racial injustice and inequality.
