Harambe was a Silverback Gorilla. If you didn't know, Silverbacks are nearing extinction. And besides that, think about black lives matter protesters. They believe that black people get acused of doing things and get shot for no reason. That's what most believe with Harambe. Harambe was acused of attacking a child, why others think he was just playing and protecting him. Harambe became a meme, and a symbol. And of course no one protests if a white person dies, whats new.
