BLM If no one is going to say it, I will. Black Lives Matter is just another means to propagandize the black life more than actually helping a black life. I already know a majority of you reading this article will either go against my statement or want to hear more, so here the facts. Over the last year the Black Lives Matter movement has proved to be more of a business than a movement. Wordly marches have happened on account of actual black people losing their lives and yet BLM or should we say BLMGN has yet to create 0 legal changes in the system that control or even minimize the behaviors of law enforcement initiated by BLM or compensated scorned families as retribution. They represent righteous treatment of black people by the hands of the law through protest but are not actually helping to redirect the violence and poverty line that could help decrease black on black crimes, hunger and even police brutality. With all of the traction and followers still there has been no concrete contract or plan that has the intentions of protecting black lives or the rights of black lives. The black lives matter movement has received $90,000,000 in funds that have not been distributed towards black people or black families or black lives at all.

At first these were just rumors until I did my own research. Scattering through the internet and articles brought me upon a random white woman on the internet who nicely exposes a website that allows one to follow all monetary reports that have to do with political donations and expenses. Now, this website led me to find the financial expenditures for ACT BLUE. Who the hell is Act Blue you ask? Well, if you go to the website blacklivesmatter.com and then press donate there are terms and conditions. These terms and conditions tell the donors who their money is streaming through. So Act Blue is a third party charity carrier for political campaigns. Facts, saying the slogan “Black Lives Matter” is the perfect hashtag that doesn’t take too much time in your day to write but also shows there is some grief in your heart. The saying black lives matter has proved to be just that, a saying which has become a trend. With all of the movements around the world for black lives, black lives continue to suffer daily.
