Change seems to be coming from multiple directions, both outside and within the corridors of political and economic power, as our ignorance shatters and we wake up. #consciousevolution

Cops shooting innocent people in inner cities does NOT describe the root of what’s been going on in American ghettoes. Loss of manufacturing jobs, owing to Globalist trade treaties; gang crime; drugs; poverty; absolute dependence on government for survival—now you’re talking about the roots of the devastation. But that wasn’t the preferred narrative. So instead, Black Lives Matter (BLM) and affiliated groups have received special attention from above: the President, the US Attorney General, George $oros, and so on.
While the name, Black Lives Matter, could be perceived as an exclusive club where others aren’t welcome, nothing could be further from the truth. BLM, as the movement is often abbreviated, only wants to level the playing field, and welcomes supporters from any race, creed, religion, gender — anyone — who acknowledges systemic disparities present in the U.S.
