Image Transcription:

White text on a black background reading:

"These Colors Don't Run (Into the Building While Kids Are Getting Shot)"

Underneath is a Blue Lives Matter flag consisting of a black and white American flag where the white stripe under the square of stars has been coloured blue.

Hi there! Serious question. Why are you doing this? I have no problem with it; just curious.

If anyone has vision impairment or otherwise can't view the image, then they can still participate in the discussion about it.

Visually impaired users benefit from transcription of an image's contents, especially when that image does not have corresponding alt-text for their tooling to narrate for them.
