Black Lives Matter

The Black Lives Matter Movement has been gathering pace since 31st May following the death of George Floyd in police custody in view of the world. Antagonists have made their opinions known, including me. I have read so many blogs and responses, undoubtedly for me they tend to fall into 5 categories

  1. White people who share the belief that black lives matter and understand and progress the agenda
  2. White people who share the belief that black lives matter, but misunderstand and distract the agenda – for example stating ‘all lives matter’.
  3. Black people who share the belief that black lives matter and understand and progress the agenda
  4. Black people who share the belief that black lives matter, but misunderstand and distract the agenda
  5. Then all the others who share varying other beliefs from Black lives don’t matter to black lives matter the most.

Is this why there is limited progress on the BLM agenda?
