BLM was the worst thing to happen to Black activism

[Mac Ten]

I knew BLM was on sum bs back then..


Ol Grifting azz mofos.


They didn't even bother to make sure that the families of the ones slain by police were str8 before they decided to buy houses and nice cars.

I know that Candice Owens be kewning and bafooning but I saluted her when she went that dyke Patrisse Cullors home and paid her a visit.

If it was as easily co-opted as it was, it was suspect to begin with.
All they did was turn it into a brand and slogan for philanthropy and "activism".
It was engineered to be later dismantled. This:


Is what's wrong with black activism, and the reason there will be no meaningful advancement for black people achieving self-determination.

 

[Chrishaune]

Can't trust anything like that now because we know there are people trying to get rich in the background.

NOT EVEN close to the worst
I guess you could say it introduced these acronyms that were formally confined to LGBT to the Black community, but even then, no one in LIFE has ever said...

• "I'm not African, I'm BLM"
• "New study unearths hardships of 'BLM' men and women in the 1940s"
• "What's the best 'BLM' genre?"
• Etc

See how stupid that sounds??? This what i be tryna explain to these Internet Ass Muhfukkas @Adeptus Astartes got it right, the shyt was co-opted. RIP Darren Seales.

On their website, their organization were only planning on removing black men out of the household. But yet these bytches profited off the blood of straight black men being killed by police

 

[Chrishaune]

If a movement ain't led by straight Black Men....its probably gonna be on some bullshyt.

You ain't lying, they'll be mad at this though.

i think the problem with this can be chalked up to the problems with big money in politics (including political movements)


darren seals died for the big money handpicked safe activists and you've seen most of them were grifters.

It's the same people.

yes, money being involved corrupts everything.

nobody was running organizations/organizing in the civil rights era to get rich

 

[#BOTHSIDES]

The movement was positive. It was hijacked by the Democrat party and LGBT activists.

nikka don’t talk bad about the democrats!!!

 

[The Fade]

They were definitely Steinem appointed

No wonder Cube never got in touch with that Garcia chick

I think that's when it started. When they killed civil rights leaders, the others fell in line with the money people.

I would say the United States government assassinating or otherwise neutralizing every black activist leader in the 60's and 70's was the worst thing to happen, but we're all entitled to our own opinion.

Then they started playing all the hits again in the twenty first century: https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/07/us/d...tivist-found-dead-shot-burning-car/index.html

Seals was killed on September 6, 2016, in Riverview,[17] a northern suburb of St. Louis. A homicide investigation revealed he was shot before he was placed in a car, that was later set on fire.[18]

Media outlets noted "the resemblance of Seals' death to the unsolved killing of Deandre Joshua,"[19] another Ferguson resident who was also found shot in a burning car two years earlier, on the night of the announcement a grand jury had not indicted Wilson in Brown's death.[20] Police report that while Joshua's case is still open and active, Seals' death has not been linked to it,[7] but nor has a link been ruled out.[21] The Daily Beast found four more cases of similar deaths in St. Louis County in the last two years.[22]

Why was DeAndre Joshua killed?

DeAndre Joshua was a 20-year-old Black man who lived in Ferguson, Mo. He worked the night shift at Walmart. He was a close friend of Dorian Johnson, who was with Michael Brown when he was killed by Darren Wilson, a Ferguson cop, on Aug. 9. Joshua was shot while sitting in his car near where Brown

BLM was hijacked by opportunists and black people let the shyt happen.

However, the protest across the country did bring about a change in how Law Enforcement interacts with the public and even more accountability. Was that not the original goal?

What lasting change really occurred? Any tangible laws or mandates?

It's back to business as usual
