Answer this. What would make equally awesome educated black Americans not reject BLM?

Are we not as smart as others? Are we not as educated in history( I minored in it)? Are we stupid? Are you superior in your understanding of Marxism- more than we are? Are we like children who can’t think for themselves? Why would an American living, living, born, educated and staying here black person follow or condone or not tear down BLM? I am starting to feel that many on here won’t stop and trust that black Americans may actually be seeing and perceiving something that they can’t. I wonder why civil rights movements are suspect before they are prospective. These questions and what seems to be there answers from a number of tigernet posters smells of white privilege in whites being more american, having a greater stake and right to define what being an American is all about and determining if one group is more detrimental to the american way than the other, and even asking them to go to another country and leave if they don’t like it. What makes you higher management and the official voice for America to leave. No one unless they are First Nation was here outside of stealing the land from the First Nation, immigration or slavery. And most slaves were here and American before immigrants. Thoughts?

you're just trying to assert that I did more preaching and talking that asking a question. I get it. Do you see the question in the title?

wasn't sure, but I want to answer your first one. I probably can't do it justice at the moment (at work), but in a nutshell, I think asserting that "Black Lives Matter" implies that some people don't already understand that, so I don't know what you are hoping to accomplish by repeating that over and over and basing your movement around a belief that almost everybody already holds. I would be happy to elaborate more later.

it's acuality would be a great benefit to ALL Americans. That's my answer to the initial question, I'll have to think more about about the rest of it.

How can you have real racial equality when one side always ends up using the race card if you disagree with the ones using it? I mean on anything. I am just asking a question nothing more or less.

You lack a sense of other.

A major impediment to racial equality is a majority of white Americans lacking a sense of other, as in most would recognize the problem, but is it really "their" problem. And if they don't think so, what it their motivation to help enact change?
You state that "the other side" "always" plays a race card. Absolutes are nonsense and you know this, but the fact that you see black Americans as "the other side" is a problem. They're as American as you, what side does that put you on? What side does that put me on? You need to cut that shid out.
If you recognize racial inequality as a problem, and you recognize why a group of Americans would want to change that, why would you let your false perception of an absolute be a hurdle to create positive change?

Why would smart people march and protest as part of BLM for a violent a sexual assault suspect who attacked the cops? I guess BLM needs to pick their battles better. It makes people question the cause. People question when people protest for 90 straight days etc etc. It doesn't go over well.

I don't know how old you are but I am from the first integrated classrooms in SC. I honestly thought we have moved past the black white thing but I guess I was wrong. I thought from my perspective the race relationship was going well until Obama got elected. When he got elected it all flared up again and maybe that is just me being white. It is what it is.

in the streets... until they are all dead? Since white people are a genetic defect of blackness?
Now, before you go all "angry" on me, I don't support any racist group.
