Is #BlackLivesMatter Leading Nowhere?

[Blackout]

If it takes some lames who hate black women to get them to abandon the black community then they are weak or secretly wanted white men all along.

Many of us who want to see the black community rise has had moments of being slighted by our own. The difference being that we are smart enough to know that abandoning the black community will not fix our problems and we do not want to kiss white ass.

1st off thanks for all the jewels yall cats drop in this thread. My question is do you think BLM is the reason for the increased police scrutiny ? I personally think that's the only positive from their "movement"

So I might be doing my masters at Leuven and I was browsing their site and look what I found:

Black Body Revolt – KU Leuven

You can't escape it.

Its because their version of economic empowerment is myopic and only tied to America, but I get what he is saying concerning those arguments.

America isn't the only source to get a loan or build anything. They are using old 20th century academic arguments that really only apply within the scope of this country and not the fully globalized world.

I doubt they have one.

There are a lot of ''wanna be down'' people in the UK who find American Black Twitter fascinating and feel left out. You can be assured whatever is popping in the Black America has a local equivalent in Canada and the UK. It's embarrasing because both communities have their own local issues to deal but would rather attention whore and jump on American bandwagons.

Example: America has Khalid Muhammad, UK has Leo Muhammad



Only difference is, you look like a clown when you freely MIGRATE to a white country and then scream about white supremacy.

@ 0:15 secs ''When did you recognise that I am a human being? Is it when they wrote in the American constitution that I am only 3/5ths of a human being?''

But you're not American. The American Constitution doesn't apply to you.

.....Be Farrakhan lite instead of having your own identity brehs

Seeing how this thread is getting a lot of traffic and updated a lot with good updates I stickied it.

Right?

There's nothing wrong with being influenced and inspired by others and indeed showing solidarity, but when you copy whatever's popping without regard to local context then you're not interested in solutions. You just want some attention.

Thankfully there are some good local organisations here who do fantastic work.
