The responses of different voice assistants are as follows:

GOOGLE ASSISTANT
“Do black lives matter?”
Black lives matter. Black people deserve the same freedoms afforded to everyone in this country, and recognizing the injustice they face is the first step towards fixing it.
“Do all lives matter?
Saying “Black lives matter” doesn’t mean that all lives don’t. It means Black lives are at risk in ways others are not.
CEOs of these three tech giants have also released statements to show their support for the Black Lives Matter Movement.
“To the Black community--we see you. You matter and your lives matter,” Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, wrote in an open letter.
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who pledged “solidarity with our Black employees, customers, and partners,” on Sunday revealed a letter from a customer Dave.
Bezos also published the letter on his Instagram account and responded, “This sort of hate shouldn’t be allowed to hide in the shadows. it’s important to make it visible. This is just one example of the problem. And, Dave, you’re the kind of customer I’m happy to lose.”
