The leaders of BLM could care less about the elections or social justice. They've found out there is big money to be made organizing and executing these "protests". They are the 2016 version of Jackson and Sharpton. The participants get nothing other than some weaves and maybe a flat screen. They also get to beat the hell out of innocent bystanders and homeless white people knowing nothing will happen to them. But the leaders, those guys are cashing in. Follow the money.
"There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs—partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs…
There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who do not want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public."
-Booker T. Washington
All the way back then?!?!
I’m shocked. Truthfully.
Yes, way back then.
Black-Lives-Matter is a tool for communists who wish to overthrow this country. The idiots rioting, disrespecting the National Anthem, and all, are being exploited for this cause. Their current target is delegitimizing the police and they are doing a great job with the refuse-to-be-informed. Hard to see how this goes, but can an American NKVD be far away?
BLM is on Soros’s payroll, and Obama’s Justice Department. This is their business. And business under Obama has been very good.
Seems like no one would have listened back then. hmm.
Thanks for the enlightening quote.
I live to serve.
Peaceful citizenship and earned respect - Booker T Washington.
Violent upheaval and overthrow - W.E.B. Dubois/NAACP/Panthers/BLM
If you watch these riots, it appears that about half of the rioters are young, white, honky, commie snowflakes. IOW: Snowflake commie agitators.
