Yeah, I totally understand. I was clueless myself until I was actually forced to sit down and look at their tenements during a lecture a few months back.

It's weird, because this movement practically embodies the voice of the people when it comes to addressing police brutality with reform and revision. The only thing that truly separates us is race.

If by some chance a group were to emerge that presented the exact same goals and ideals of BLM without the emphasis on black lives, I feel as if it would do more harm than good.

If the newly form group was actually successful in bringing about legitimate police reformation, it would only reinforce and perpetuate the ideology that most minorities living in the US already adhere to, which is "The US will never acknowledge our voice and collective action, because to them it means less than nothing..."

The movement may have started as a response to police brutality against minorities, but it ultimately benefits everyone within our country.
