What do they say its about ? Gotta be some jew/gay shyt

When I hear BLM , I think of Mike Brown

Black Lives Matter is a unique contribution that goes beyond extrajudicial killings of Black people by police and vigilantes. It goes beyond the narrow nationalism that can be prevalent within some Black communities, which merely call on Black people to love Black, live Black and buy Black, keeping straight cis Black men in the front of the movement while our sisters, queer and trans and disabled folk take up roles in the background or not at all. Black Lives Matter affirms the lives of Black queer and trans folks, disabled folks, Black-undocumented folks, folks with records, women and all Black lives along the gender spectrum. It centers those that have been marginalized within Black liberation movements. It is a tactic to (re)build the Black liberation movement.

Cause walking and hash tagging is action right?
It take more heart to sit down and discuss the problems face to face, which it sounds like they did whether anything comes of it is still in the air. Bit it's different than the same thing blm does at every turn, they've been doing the same thing for 2-3 years with no solutions. Sometimes you gotta try something different to get better results

BLM

to Wichita people having a conversation with the cops letting them know how we feel and how to communicate with folks in the hood


We had the same thing where Compton bloods and crips had a sit down with the black mayor and cops who patrol the neighborhoods to have a conversation about how can we stopped the violence among cops and minorities and black on black crime....

Some of u suburban nikkas wouldn't understand so keep talking

Real talk.

Them "official" folks in the BLM "Organization" ain't livin' in Wichita, these people are - and these are the cops that
be in their streets every day. If they can get meet semi-amicably (which is an accomplishment in itself) and hash some chit
out while eatin' some brisket then everybody elsewhere can stay where they're at and keep their opinions to themselves...
...and maybe relax and take notes, while they take tokes of the ribs that was smoked.

Eating BBQ > Throwing what amounts to temper tantrums in the eyes of the system while they label you a terrorist organization.

This makes no sense

 

[SunZoo]

This makes no sense

Riots and protests are temper tantrums in the eyes of the government.

You ain't see the peaceful BLM protesters get associated with the Dallas shooter? It's gonna be people out there trying to do something good who are ultimately going to be getting set up.

Why? Malcolm himself regularly condemned black POIs who valued communication and empathy over violence and protest.

Malcolm criticized but 1) he did his criticism inside the group and 2) his criticism had a purpose.
Interview with Coretta Scott King

JACKIE SHEARER: OK, Mrs. King can you tell me again about February '65 when you met Malcolm X in Selma.
CORETTA SCOTT KING: Yes, I was in Selma to visit my husband who was in jail in connection with the, ah, voting rights campaign in Selma. Because he had been in jail for a day or so and, ah, because the campaign had been in progress, I was little bit weary because naturally I was so involved in it, ah, even though I was not there all the time. So when I walked into the church where the mass meetings were held at noon time. Andy Young said to me, ah, "Coretta you're going to have to speak today because Malcolm X is here. He's just spoken and he has aroused the people and you need to speak because you need to, ah, you know, to set a nonviolent tone." And I said to Andy, "Well, I really don't feel like speaking. I'm not in the mood to speak today." He said, "Oh, but you've got to speak. You need to. You'll be able to do it. You'll feel like it. And you're going to have to speak." And finally of course I gave in and I did speak. Ah, so I walked out on the platform, or the, and sat down next to him in the pulpit, I guess it was. Ah, well you know I, I felt a little nervous because I hadn't met him before and I really didn't know what he was going to be like. But, ah, you know, after I had spoken. He leaned over and said to me, ah, "Mrs. King, I want you to tell your husband that I had planned to visit him in jail here in Selma but I won't be able to do it now. I have to go back to New York, ah, because I, I have to attend a conference in Europe, an African student conference and I want you to say to him that I didn't come to Selma to make his job more difficult but I thought that if the White people understood what the alternative was that they would be more inclined to listen to your husband. And so that's why I came." And of course I thanked him. And I was naturally, ah, somewhat surprised because I didn't expect him to say that. I don't know what I expected. But he had such a gentle manner and he seemed very sincere and I kept thinking, ah, you know I kept thinking about what he had said and the way he had said it. And of course within about a couple weeks or more he was assassinated and it affected me very deeply because I had met him now and I felt that it was such a tragic loss because he had come around to understand better, I think, non-violence and, and my husband's position and would have been a, I think a force for reconciliation and healing because there was a great need I think between Blacks and Blacks, ah, for that kind of thing. And I felt also that if he had lived, ah, particularly in the latter part of the '60s that he probably could have been a tremendous, ah, bridge, you know, in bringing Black Muslims and, and, other Black people, ah, in the Civil Rights Movement together. Ah, and, for days I had this pain almost like, this feeling in my chest, a feeling of depression, and, ah, just feeling as if, ah, I had lost someone very dear to me, and I, you know, I couldn't quite understand but then I began to realize, ah, I guess what an impact he had made on me in that very short period of time in knowing him.

National Black Lives Matter organization says it does not support First Step Barbecue

WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) The national co-founder of the BlackLivesMatter organization says she does not support last weekend's "first step barbecue."

The event let the community and Wichita police officers talk about ways to improve relations between the department and minority communities.

"The group of people who had a BBQ with the police are not affiliated with BlackLivesMatter," said Patrisse Cullors, co-founder of the national organization.

A tweet from the D.C. chapter of BlackLivesMatter said the BBQ is not in line with the principals of the national organization. Cullors said the event in Wichita doesn't bring about change.

"We don't sit on panels with law enforcement, and we don't have BBQ's or cookouts with law enforcement. We feel the best method at this point in history is by holding police accountable by organizing and advocating for police accountability," Collors said.

Wichita organizer Djuan Wash said the movement in Wichita is about saving lives.

"It's not about who's credit, who has that organization, who has that organization, whether or not we stand in line with their principles and different things like that," said Wash. "We never once said we were a black lives matter organization."


Organizer A.J. Bohannon agrees with Cullor on changing laws, but he says the way they are going about it here in Wichtia works for this community.

"What's good for Wichita, Kansas may not be the same thing that's good for Washington D.C., those people aren't here in Wichita. They don't know the pulse, and the temperature of this community, and the ways they interact with their police officers and elected officials is not the same way we have to, or chose to interact here in Wichita," Bohannon said.

Youd think dialogue and understanding is what you're looking for in interaction between the black community and the police. How the fukk would people in DC know what best for the black community of Wichita? Obama and Lynch left the black community on their own in terms of levying consequences on the police, so we have to do whats best for our own communities, until we can boss up economically.
