(1,190 posts)I support BLM but I saw this as Hillary co-opting the BLM movement , The BLM speakers were given the microphone and had very little to say except Michael Brown And I Can't breathe referring to the tragedy in New York , Absolutely there is injustice being perpetrated upon POC in this nation but we must work together to end these injustices , To the main BLM movement You need progressive support , To cap on Bernie ( who has been in support since 63) is probably not a good plan, I know that I as supporting progressive of BLM I felt that it is being co-opted, I guarantee that if you did this at a Hillary function you would be on your way to jail not given the microphone.
