Jaime Juanillo

CNN's Don Lemon welcomed Jaime Juanillo, the San Francisco gay man whose video of LAFACE skincare CEO Lisa Alexander has been viewed more than 18 million times. Juanillo tweeted a video of Alexander calling the police on him after she saw him stenciling “Black Lives Matter” on a neighborhood wall that turned out to be part of his own home.

“I believe that it was because I was a person of color standing, and applying chalk art to the facade of a house that is in a great neighborhood and is historic, and is very expensive,” Juanillo told Lemon. “And I think it didn't add up to them.”

Asked why Black Lives Matter resonates with him so much, Juanillo replied: “Black Lives Matter should resonate with every American. Because Black Lives Matter is about equality. As a first generation, Filipino-American you have to fight for that. … As a gay man, we fight every day for recognition, for visibility, for equality. So the reason BLM resonates with me is because I have been fighting for equality my entire life.”
