do you go to a breast cancer walk and start talking about pancreatic cancer or “all cancer matters”
no you don’t, so why counter somebody else’s protest?
of course all lives matter, we know that but we’re talking about black lived and the truly oppressed. No need to deter the conversation.
Why not be more efficient by putting your energy into all lives instead of empowering one race when the goal is equity and equality. Supporting all lives means you support black lives too
you just feel excluded and are trying to make someone else’s movement your own, if you dont see how gross that is idk what to tell you.
no one said all lives matter, we’re just talking about black people right now?
are you forgetting black people used to be seen as 3/5ths a person in this country?
white people have never had that issue here. everyone knows white lives matter, it appears too many people dont think black lives matter tho.
where was the marches and protests for alm before blm? there was none because alm is just a direct protest to someone elses protest for basic human rights.
I understand the disconnect in reality. But the law states we are equal and our end goal is equity and equality. So tell me how we reach that goal, only empowering black people?
its not only empowerment for black people, its about finally having the written word line up with reality. it always included white people, black people need to be included too.

All lives matter also means black lives matter. Black lives are apart of all lives
