Is #BlackLivesMatter Leading Nowhere?

‘This to me is a plantation mentality’, says Brown. ‘It smacks of “master, if you would just treat me right”. And it has nothing to do with self-determination, empowerment and a sense of justice, or anything else.’ When, in 1967, the California state legislature was tabling a bill banning the open carry of firearms – in direct response to the Panther patrols – Newton and Seale led an armed delegation to the State Capitol. One need only contrast that to BLM protests in the wake of police shootings – where they host ‘die-ins’ – to see the chasm between the two movements.

:jbtable:My sentiments exactly...

BLM’s appeals for sympathy, for protection, have enjoyed a good hearing from the establishment. Through his COINTELPRO programme, then FBI director J Edgar Hoover carried out assassinations of Panther leaders and fomented civil war between Huey Newton loyalists and followers of the party’s flash-talking ‘minister of information’, Eldridge Cleaver. By contrast, BLM leaders have received fundingfrom billionaire Democratic donors and had meetings with Hillary Clinton. ‘I was ashamed of them for asking that racist warmonger what she thought of black people’, Brown says.

She is not playing this bullshyt.

Scroll up to my post. BLM is a organisation but it is also a movement, they dissociate themselves with BLM (the organisation) and it confused some people.

Edit: XLNB has me blocked on Twitter and I've never interacted with him.

She was pretty clear that BLM is not about any of those things the brother mentioned. That should tell you not to bother with them at all.
