An interview with the founders of Black Lives Matter | Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, Opal Tometi
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 гру 2016
- Born out of a social media post, the Black Lives Matter movement has sparked discussion about race and inequality across the world. In this spirited conversation with Mia Birdsong, the movement's three founders share what they've learned about leadership and what provides them with hope and inspiration in the face of painful realities. Their advice on how to participate in ensuring freedom for everybody: join something, start something and "sharpen each other, so that we all can rise."

"We are trained Marxists"
Patrisse's words....not mine.
;)
James James I’m here because of that lol #rabbithole
@daniel l its not in this video. It was in an interview she did. Just look up "trained Marxist" on UA-cam and you'll see it in the top 3 results I believe
Edit: yep 3rd video in search results for "trained marxist" Video is 1:26 long
@daniel l
It's not in this video and I never stated nor claimed that it was in this video. All I claimed is that those were her words, which is 100% factual. An EXTREMELY EASY UA-cam search of "Patrisse Cullors marxist" will render that in which you have been waiting to hear.
LOL
;)
We have to condem racism without being part of the movement. First i liked BLM because they want justice for George and to fight racism but they began to REVEAL their true SOCIALIST face. Did you know the statue of an inmigrant that died defending the slavery that had been destroyed? Or the black business destroyed by rioters???? What about the communism signs in the city?You want to destroy a Abraham Lincoln Statue but NOT a Lenin statue? Open your mind and investigate the next target is JESUS.
@Mark Evans
That's your subjective opinion. One can make any argument these days and not have to actually support it with facts. I'd be interested in your comprehensive substantiation of this opinion.
I've heard people blame Trump for literally EVERYTHING from global warming to things that were put into place LONG before he even considered running for president to blaming him for being the reason that moons don't align.
Not a single one of them substantiated, ergo, completely invalid.
I wouldn't mind hearing another one. Of course you could expound upon and substantiate your opinion if you can.
;)
The ones who talk about racism are the most racist people. Their vision of united as one is separated by a color of skin.
The ones who talk about murder the most are murderers, the ones who talk about children the most are children... man that logic is truly flawless and correct.
Charlie Leyva calling out racism isn't racist
KhrisR3D did I say it applied to everything or did I say racism?
George Rascón I can agree to a certain degree, but individuals who are constantly fighting to end racism turn every scenario into a racist scenario.
Charlie Leyva you used an example that made no sense and had no backing so now you can't defend it. Your logic is not applicable to anything especially racism.
"BLM means Buying Land for Me"

That's right. lmao

This is so funny after all the millions they made and donated the rest to the DNC and not back to the community😂

So true.
Eyes never tell lies ppl
SMH,
Your going 2 love this I believe she worked with my enemy. My money was laundered. Pat was working in Philly...finally a connection. I believe she was in several areas while working with shelters, I was in.
this comment section is gonna be great
true dat
it's gonna be awesome haha. but this lady is not helping her cause at all. this is just gonna segregate people even more. she says black lives matter is for all but never mentions it until the end.
Better read it before it gets deleted.
Haha, I came here just for the comments. I'll watch the video later.
Yara Alawi no it's actually disgusting
Are these women for real???are they listening to themselves..ppl actually believe what they are saying???this is unbelievable...
100 million dollars were donated lol
Unfortunately they do to the point where trash lives matter is now untouchable. You can't even criticize them without getting bullied.
Congratulations to Patrisse for her new 1.4 million dollar house, I'm sure the 1℅ black population on the area she moved in will have their lives greatly improved by that... Somehow.
I'm here to find the mansion comments
@@jonathonsmith6831 Me too. BLM donations are supposed to be used to help the black community and she, a professed "Marxist", is out buying millions dollar houses. She needs to be investigated & charged with fraud.
She’s quite the capitalist Marxist lol

FACTS BLM IS CORRUPT.
And she deserves everything she gets. There is not a monetary amount we can pay her for the service she has given to the black community. But you know there are many Caucasians who were successful through illegal Gaines. A just GOD balances the good with the evil. So you are not God and not capable of giving Justice and equity. It's not in your character.
No facts, all feeling. No responsibilty just blame.
Logical thinking > Emotional thinking
They are basically retards
Yellow (Asians) and Brown (Indians and South East Asians) lives matters too ;-) :P
Only individuals' lives matter.
how is it blaming when the economic problems in the black community are a direct result of whites denying black forefathers work ?
Anthony
Black unemployment was lower than white unemployment in the 20s and 30s. The minimum wage has disinterested employers from hiring lower educated workers and workers with criminal records because now they have to pay them on par with people with clean records and higher education. No points for guessing which demographic this will hurt the most.
"we can have disagreements without being disagreeable" It feels very hypocritical for them to say that.
VERRRRY

Well done to her, the retarded blm supporter deserve it, a lot of people warned them but they never listened 😂
I’m black but this is DEMONIC
Very demonic, May The Almighty bless and keep us!!
Facts
I mean cmon, how is this even a real thing?
How is that?
They speak broad on every question. What are you going have "The Movement" Do! What are yall doing? What is plan man? They said no plan or talked about no progression made talking...speaking.... money in their pockets.
This just pushed it over the line. Once TED has hate groups on their channel, all the validity goes away.
hate group...REALLY??!!!your intimidation is showing lol lol
The KKK is seen as a hate group. Yet they killed the same amount of blacks in 80 years that blacks themselves kill every 6 months. And we again see this racial divide with BLM over problems within the race, not with the white majority.
so having black people on = having a hate group on? make up your mind, is it black people or BLM?
Patternicity why not both?
BLM attempts to divide black from white by assuming that white people are the cause of their "oppresion." No one denies the existance of racism or their goal to eliminate racism, but when they do not realize that the problem is within themselves it's just a waste of time.
I’m so proud to read all these comments, people can think for themselves. What a great time!
all losers
Love how those women used the racism of their own community to be where they are nowadays.
The Land of opportunities.
This is what I’m researching at the moment. How entrepreneurship can be combine with ethnocentrism, traditionalism and authoritarianism. Most of the time I hear about entrepreneurs promoting free market capitalism, economic freedom, and all these other neoliberal values. I want to hear about political and ethnocentric entrepreneurship for right wing purposes. This BLM movement is not really right wing. But it is about dismantling the status quo, and I like learning from these people.
TED, you forgot to disable the comment section.
They will.
And the like button.
* american free speech at its finest *
yeah I thought they would disable it too, so funny, TED has really gone down hill.
Crazy Wolfgang has Ted ever disabled comments for any of their vids?
The comments on here give me a huge surge of hope.
Same bro, thank God not everyone is brainwashed 🙏
My eyes were opened when I was 6. I lived in a multicultural community. Who bullied me? Not my colored classmates. They just watched and minded their own business. The bullies had white skin just like me. They bullied me for 6 years until we moved in with my grandmother. In my experience colored kids who grew up with white kids were less likely to target the lighter skinned. And vice versa.
Would you consider that accurate for the most part?
@@stephaniesouth6073 All people can and do gang up on others who are outnumbered. It is not a black or white thing, it's a human thing. If you're the only white kid in an all black school... guess what? It goes in all directions. The first most important thing is that we accurately identify human nature and stop focusing on RACE. We are all people at the end of the day. Color is just pigment.
@@josephtoscano7398 I'm aware that the human race evolved in Africa. I'm aware that genetically we're all African descents. I'm just so used to being called white and checking the "caucasian " box on everything. The world is all about skin color now. It deeply saddens me but if I try to battle the wave I'll only get swept out to sea again and not get anywhere further. I've been battling that same wave for as long as I've been an adult which is 8 years. People don't really want to change. Otherwise at 26 years old all I'd have to check is a box saying 'us born citizen' or something along the line of that. You get the idea at least. Lol. i want world peace but first there has to be peace in everyone's heart for that to be possible. Hate is something you're taught at a young age. Something you see around you.The cycle will never end at this rate.
@@stephaniesouth6073 Unfortunately human nature has the capacity for great ignorance and evil. The truth is as you say, we are all of one race, the human race, and we are all equally deserving of fair treatment. Yet in reality that's not how it works, humans will group up based on shallow similarities like skin color. They will justify murder and destruction. We are all capable of it unless we sharply discipline our mind and heart. I believe humans are good but flawed, the core reason socialism and communism will never work. But some people will never learn, some ideas will apparently never die.
Home being raided? It will be interesting to find out why... Note that she did not give a reason, nor did she say why.
“We want to know why”
Ya, there’s generally a reason for that. Accidental raids happen but not usually…
Facts facts facts!
Thanks to the like-dislike ratio, my faith in humanity is not dead yet.

You and me brother.
I'm *Black* and..... *dislike!*
But we need to like the video so it blows up and people see the truth about BLM
@@moonjae-in12thpresidentofr20 Black Lez B Un Mansions!
None of this has anything to do with race and everything to do with culture.
Correct. Culture not race.
Yes
@Lalramfakzuala Chhangte ? try me ?
Janna Naegeli, these three women are seriously lacking culture.
@Lalramfakzuala Chhangte people make a culture
"What we need now, more than ever, is a civil rights movement" Read a history book please
Apparently I didn't remember correctly. She said human rights movement. Even worse.
Tilen Marš thank you, these bitches think it's the 60's.
MLK would be disgusted.
Please MLK...would be honored and disgusted about how far he still has to go...I'm sure he is turning in grave right about now
She said 'human rights"
You're right. I corrected my comment. But it doesn't change anything. If anything it's even worse.
Lisa, you're an idiot. MLK would be horrified by BLM and their insistence on judging people based on their race.
Patrice was honest:
When asked what she learned about leadership- "we need to invest in leadership." She literally said we need to invest in her, give her money
I'm surprise they hadn't disabled the comments yet. lol
In 16 minutes they managed to say absolutely nothing of any value.
How?They said exactly what needed to be said but YOU missed it. They talked of the need of change and how we must be that change in respective communities. That was the overall message of this video.
And if that’s not “of value” than what is?
No that won’t open care about this chaos and division
@@djsmith2235 YOU, need to put the bong down, they talked about themselves for 15 minutes and how everything including the weather is opressing them and right at the end, after being prompted by the interviewer told everyone to ring the white house and join a group. The whole conversation was worthless. If you think there was some worthwhile message in there then thats up to you, but all I see is another example of pointless grievance culture that solves nothing except to fill their bank accounts.
@J P Not nearly as privileged as the 3 millionaire race grifters on stage.
This interview would've been taken more seriously if they stated some valid accomplishments they've achieved
There aren't any
Riots, looting, burning, eradication of history, Racism dividing the country like never before, making every conservative and moderate democrat arm themselves for a start.
Achievement, Remember the Dallas shooter, on rampant shootout with Dallas P.D. Causing the death of 5 police officer's.
They've achieved nothing. I live in Chicago, and I haven't seen a single penny go into the black communities from the countless donations they've received.
@@joshuajuarez9930 BLM, ANTIFA ARSONIST GANG'S. . Got that money $$$$$$$$
to pocket it all via Foundations. Idea's,, TYPICAL OF POVERTY PIMPS, EASY MONEY .. LOT'S OF TRAVEL EXPENSES, TAX WRITE OFFs, and round and round they go..
Love the new 1.4 million dollar house. When are you donating it to a needy black family?
in a all white community btw.
The white race is actually the most under privileged race on the entire planet
She said Africans across the continent….is she from Africa?….I’ve worked with quite a few people from Africa and she may be surprised to hear what they say.
hate groups on ted.. funny huh
not sure about the point you're trying to make but no? there's the ku klux klan and the westboro baptist church, to name white christian hate groups
exactly, blm haven't been recognised as a hate group yet because of the liberal biased media, people will realise soon enough, just as the kkk used to have open support and little to no prejudice.
Watch the video so you may more aptly comment
more hate groups in the comments. hence... Trump
are you black or blackkk? btw there was no united nations back in the day, there was only the outcome of what would happen from the mightiest of men and you should be glad that abolished slavery across the world and got us to this point in time where there is such a thing as first world countries
A lot of this feels like opinion, where are the facts that support what you're saying?
The evidence about the cents, apparently. No clue what state they’re talking about. I make as much money as would ANYONE who starts in my position. No race, gender, or gender identity discrimination in my work field. Actually, no discrimination in any place I’ve worked. 17 and have had 3 summer jobs.
@@maltipoo6741 hmm, evidence "about the cents"? You mean like the wage gap? Thanks for sharing your experience. For those pushing and believing that, that myth has been debunked already several times in various videos.
Timothy N yeah like they were talking about how apparently, your race and gender dictate how much money you make. And I agree that there is no evidence to support their wage claims.
there's actually quite a bit of critical race scholars who use sociological data to support this evidence. :~) a quick google search will help ya
Why are they even mentioning Haiti? So...i guess they're destroying America because of the "social injustices" in Haiti?🤔
Patrisse had a huge smile when she talked about what inspired her, to see black lives thriving, and we all know she was seeing them dollassssigns 💸
Yeah. Stealing money.
That is true
The amount of dislikes on this video restores my faith in humanity.
A lot of racist
@@pinguinocomentador9743 no
@@frogprincereader the fact that white people were almost forced to be ashamed of their race and made to believe they were racist and had privilege is sickening. Unfortunately many still buy into the BLM lies though
I didn't realise that climate change was racist, thank you for informing me !
Lol
LOL
I did not hear her say climate change was racist. What she said was people are looking for climate justice and she should have explained what she meant instead of leaving that for interpretation. My interpretation was she was saying the world was not providing help for these poor countries devastated by natural disasters and we have the ability to limit some of the damage that they cause or mitigate the damage with aid. That is where my mind went. I will admit she did not explain it well and she should have. Also this to my knowledge is the only video of these women expressing some varying views and I am sure some of their views have changed and I am interested to know where they stand today.
Stupid huh?
@@johnkwesif Nah. The fake discipline, 'Environmental Wacism', is much more sinister. It's an excuse to flood Westernkind with Africans, Guatemalans, Hondurans, etc., and destroy our way of life..

“We are trained marxists”. -Patrice Cullors
Traitors trying to take advantage of a real problem. Wolves in sheep’s clothing. Absolutely disgraceful!
Well said!! 👏👏
Wow they fooled everyone even me! Wow now I can read between the lines.

Social unrest happens when the government pushes too hard, when you have social unrest all sorts of entities take advantage of it. If people were required to play Civ 2 this would be common knowledge
What the 'real problem'?
300 bpm the fact that there are some racist people out there. It’s just not as bad in 2020 as the MSM wants everyone to believe. So like blind sheep, people actually think this organization cares about them and uses their emotions on an issue which does, exist to try to bring the country to civil war and usher in socialism along the way. Ever hear of the great Trojan horse? Comes in all forms
2 minutes in I had to turn it off, lies and misinformation.
Congrats on the 4 houses.
9 mansions now.
The stupidity is mind boggling. I would like to edit in the fact that my wife is a stunning black woman, and shes appalled by all of it.
I am black and being attacked for standing against this group
I would also like to report that my husband is an amazing black man and he is also appauled and stands against all of this.

@Troy Gonzalez break it down for us
Tami Rowell Hammons .....what by coining a phrase! I don’t think so. They’re talking equality dumbo!
Who is hear after hearing Patrisse bought a 1.4mil house in a predominantly white neighbourhood ? Pushing a social agenda? You shouldn’t buy that kind of house and above all you shouldn’t go away from a neighbourhood with your people in. The people you claim to be fighting for.
As a black man in Europe, my fellow blacks reading this, please educate yourselves, invest your money no matter how small, buy assets, take care of yourself and family, avoid crime or crime situations, take responsibility as much as you can. And above all, reject the victimisation mentality. Never pay attention to those white and black liberals cheering you.
Why fight like a socialist and live like a capitalist? Hypocrites
Im hear
"Why fight like a socialist and live like a capitalist"

@TeeTauntYen as a white woman I had to have a reason to not support them. Otherwise I would be a racist witch.
@@raewebb1399 why do you not support them? I want to hear your thoughts :)
The more you talk here the more I see why you don't have to support them. They don't obviously need your support. Go support the KKK.
jackson alex if u do ur research you’ll see how Marxism and communism is so bad and see how these 3 and BLM movement is bad and how these guys are using all black people to get there power
Never see them in the front lines when the tough gets going. Sounds familiar.
It's funny when black people talk about slavery, seemingly forgetting that basically every race has been enslaved at one point or another
Yes, I agree with you. Many people have always blamed the white race for slavery in the past. Even though today, there is no longer slavery carried out by the white race. Slavery still exists today in Somalia, Africa, Bangladesh, India, China, Pakistan, Afghanistan.
Is it me or did they open up with "hurricanes are racist"?
Indeed. In Britain "countryside" has recently been called racist. Who knew that Yorkshire Dales Hills could be anti-black! Lol
I FEEL OUT MY CHAIR WHEN I HEARD THAT BS
@Random Person globalism
She is not saying hurricanes are racist. She is saying that black communities are most impacted by climate change such as harricanes. This is due to not enough support in black communities to rebuild their community when a natural disaster hits. And is often over looked in the media. Meaning less money to help these communities. Climate change is not racist. But the most impacted communities will be those that are systematically oppressed.
@Random Person yep systematically. Such as less likely to receive jobs, less likely to get promotions which is money that goes into the community (eg. Buying stuff), healthcare (more black women die from birth then white women), less doctor appointment, dentists appoints (because less money from jobs means less likely to go to the doctor), less funding for education in black communities, less funding for facilities in black communities. Less money from jobs means more likely for homelessness which means less likely to gain money to go into the community. As if you are homeless it is hard to get a job as u generally need your address on your resume, or need a bank account (which you need an address for), over policing of black communities. Also on resumes with ‘black’ sounding names were less likely to get hired by companies. So yes systemically. And that all means less money going into the community. Cause less education? Less likely to get a job, less likely for money to go into the community. Less facilities in the community? Less resources for people to seek help from mental health services and support survices. And with American health care I can’t imagine how expensive that would be. Less likely to get a job/job promotion? Less money in the community. Over policing? More likely to go to jail. Meaning less likely the community will reduce money. If you have gone to jail. Less likely to get a job, meaning less money for the community. And when I mean less money for the community I mean money coming from citizen to citizen. As well as money from the government.
So get this slavey ends in America (i’m not American) and then the prison system comes into place. Why is that? Well you have all these freed slaves, are people going to give them jobs? No. So what does the government do? Makes small crimes such as stealing worth many years in jail. Even tho if u don’t have a job (btw I’m not talking about present day in this context) how will u feed you and ur family? If you don’t steal? And then you go to prison. Where u work for basically nothing. So pretty much modern slavery. (It’s a hard concept for me to explain, but I would recommend looking into it! It’s pretty interesting)
I know your not going to believe me. I used to think systemic racism didn’t exist either, that black people are just doing fine in the world. Until I actually started researching and listening to black voices. But systemic racism runs deep. I’ll never understand what it’s like to be black as I am white. But I am trying to understand. So before u go systematically huh? Please listen to black voices in your communities, black friends, black leaders, black blogs, black books, black news outlets, black shows, etc. cause if you really don’t think it’s systemic, you haven’t talked enough with the black people in your life.
Black lives do matter and their communities do need help.
The organization blm on the other hand has a different agenda. Lots of money has been raised for this organization but that money is not helping the black communities. It is funding politics. These riots are organized and they are partnered with blm organization. Many people are pawns in this but there are players behind the scene with deep pockets and a political agenda. Be wary of people telling you how to think and what to think. Instead think for yourself. Don't succumb to group think or mob mentality. It's ok to have a different opinion than your professor or your friends. Do not succumb to peer pressure. Always seek the truth and stay true to your own morals. We need more open and caring communication instead of reacting in violence. This nation truly needs Jesus and his love and his care brought to us all no matter what background or what color. We need to do away with identity politics and tribalism and looked to the best race the only race. The human race. We must love each other and care for each other better. The best way to change the world is to change yourself. Honor your mother and father. Respect your elders. Keep family important. Break down family than you slowly break down society. Raise your kids right and show them you care because they are the future. Sorry just laying in bed had to get this rant off my mind. This world is getting crazy but theirs hope in Jesus. Jesus loves you. Idk who will read this but if you do bless your heart my prayers out to you and your family. God knows I need it too.

When you idolize a brutal dictator you can tell their agenda is no good. Communism always brings misery and suffering to those that are not in power.
This is an amazing comment. Bless you.
Beatrix Kiddo ActBlue is where BLM money is going to.
Beautifully said
“Think for yourself”... “Jesus....” lol
The first things she spoke of her family with police happened to me in 1971 at 13 being handcuffed while my little sisters were crying and neighbors watching as we were smoking a joint. We just happened to be born white. Did you hear any of these women speak of real help to the Black community? No way because they personified only to care about themselves. IM SURE THEY NEVER EXPERIENCED THE PLEASURE OF GIVING AND HOW GOD GIVES YOU MORE TO GIVE. I don't know if it was ten fold but dam near as giving to charities rather than taxes after researching charity results. Just helping everyone if you are blessed is a high. Doing gods will got me a wagon which allowed me to help transport handicapped with wheel chairs and others needing a ride. BLM idea was a good idea but was limited by the intentions of the founders. Money changes people and can't make you truly happy but can make life easier. Serenity is when you realize how much do I really need.
The needed fathers in their lives to show them some love.
The ignorance and hypocrisy of this organization is being felt deeply. Should be Defunded and called out for what it truly is.
Defund the protesters
Blm : we demand justice and peace
Also blm : " proceeds to rioting,looting, and destroying the city"
Yeah: Burn Loot Murder, Klan with a Tan.

So why don't you say or do anything on Black On Black Crime?
That message of taking responsibility and accountability doesn't sell..
I may have mist one main point and that’s not once have I heard anyone of there’s women mention black men at all. but I did hear them mention women and transgender or I’am I missing something here ?
They are lesbian who hate men and the traditional family. It's in their website.

I would actually appreciate it if they would invite someone truly speaking about equality.
GraywellStudio Skeie modern events will soon become history.
hopefully this hate group will soon become history
GraywellStudio Skeie if you are miss informed let me correct it for you. Black lives matter is history in the making. Just like no white personal could fathom Martin Luther King being in the history book you read maybe your children can imagine black lives matter be in their history books
Jayda Richardson no white person could fathom MLK being in history books? Lmao, I think you need to read a history book. You realize that white people fought alongside MLK for the civil rights movement? The country was much more white back then, so do you really think the civil rights act could have been passed without support from white people and the white president who signed it? And fighting perceived racism by being racist is not a solution, it's the opposite. Stop lumping ppl into groups based on skin color and try on a little intellectual diversity.
The only thing that gives me hope is the comments calling out these intellectual fallacy’s
She pocketed all the BLM money and bought 4 homes. The latest is a $1.4 million home in L.A 😂😂😂
I'm sure we have done more for Haiti in the last 5 years then she's done in her entire life.
WHO'S WE? AND NO, THEY HAVEN'T
wow - why do I think I'm listening to a scripted training video at work - these women clearly have other agendas - -
Well duh these are self admitted Marxist funded by George Soros they don’t really care about Black people they’re just using it to stir up hate against white people, Like the far left have been doing for years(creating the Jim Crow laws and the KKK)

I was hoping to hear something rational. I’m quite disappointed by the lack of nuance and understanding of the connected topics that they bring up
Ask them what "white supremacy" and "systemic racism" is. They will eventually get around to telling you that these terms define capitalism. The goal is to dismantle the western civilization.

Usually TED is educational. This time TED failed.
... I noticed the audience has "forced applause." This tells me the audience present wasn't buying their uneducated nonsense.
Flames Arisen Me too. Well, it’s evident they are throwing everything against the wall to see what sticks. Now because her brother had an issue with the cops they want to defund the police dept? This is insane.

3:27 into a black lives matter video and they start talking about climate justice
I will say this for the third time, Mother Nature must be white. That automatically makes her r a c i s t. Their logic is convoluted.
My guess for this connection would be: Hey lets use a popular subject that already has the attention of many and then connect our "case" with that ...
I know right what does Marxism and climate change have to do with actually helping Black people?
Their earth been around a long long time. Tf we can do, we’re the ones who are fucking ourselves up.

That's strange. I always thought BLM

Useless totalitarian birds of a feather acronym together I suppose.
Soros is so proud of his work here.
proud? they are not even good actors, they laugh when talking
Have you ever seen coming to America where the rich guys had the 1$ Bet? Soros Is a follower of Karl Popper Karl Popper loved to do all sorts of social experiments. I guarantee you Soros is seeing if he can bring America to its knees just with propaganda all for his sick entertainment. He's trying to prove a theory.
They all seems so shy.
Life hates a void. Soros stepped and maybe inadvertently filled a social void. Blame it on "social leadership negligence and apathy" in USA. Things could have been so done differently. But, too late now- the cat is out of the soros bag. What's next?🙄

@@onfimslegacy you're right.
I've been to jail a few times. These race riots remind me of the good ol days. Used to be this stuff happens in jail, now it's out on your streets.
I really feel that they beat around the bush with these answers.
Is it just me or, if you pay attention to their micro expressions it looks like they know they're bullshitting and they barely hold in the laughs. I mean they even let some laughs escape here and there and they weren't telling a joke or anything.

At this scale? Not in a long time.
Seriously. Thanks for bringing hate and anarchy to this country. This whole movement is a load of s**t. Everyone needs to grow up and start being accountable for there own failure. The black community needs to look inward to fix their problems. Not outward
True, nobody promotes racism better then BLM. Why can't they just continue what Martin Luther King Jr. started??? He was actually on the right track on this one!
They do not know who they are sacrificing to serve ! Behind them are greedy, cunning, cruel, and brutal professional politicians.
Why dont they go and live in Venezuela. They would be totally happy there.

THE LYNCHING OF HISTORY SEEMS UNHINGED - Something in the debate with seems to have been overlooked history is complex, often unpleasant but complex. Slavery was an African invention from Egypt to Morocco when Europeans were hiding in caves Africans used slavery against other African nations. Barbary Pirates 1500s kidnapped and enslaved thousands of Europeans, the Barbary Pirates were black northern Africans and moors - the Portuguese commercialized the idea and the British realized the money that could be made. British slave traders rarely went into Africa as black Africans would bring blacks to the coast to sell to European slave traders.
Am I mad - retired university lecturer... almost as bad as racism is the editing of history to suit a political movement that is exactly what the Nazis did and look how that ended. Woke up ... how about fighting back against lunacy... Now in London a campaign to remove Churchill's statue could all end rather chaotically or worse.
I now live in France something similar happened here - Napoleon was a villain the local mayors answer in French to the local press was 'tell these politically correct imbeciles to f#### off and do something useful such as read a range of history books - napoleon of course really made modern France from canals to sewers to education, government structures to Paris architecture '.. French have a healthy disregard for stupidity, especially like this. Maybe for once we could learn something from the French. Because where does it end - remove the roads Romans used slaves to aid in their building, remove ships they were used to transporting slaves, sugar banned it has links to slavery ....
I don't have dark skin. Am I racist? Can someone help me I'm really confused.
yea. you gotta be blue like me
Being born white makes you a racist automatically if you ask these mentally ill looney toons.
If you have to ask maybe you are
I can't see in that room, the smug levels are too high!!
When she talk about Haiti, what is happening in Haiti is terrible and very sad, but before they were economically doing better than Dominican Republic, they were very stable and its a wonderful culture with wonderful people, but they had alots of social political conflict, and the earthquake, and alots of Fraud from influence inside and outside the country, we need to Help Haiti, but claiming that Haiti is there because they are black .... is very dangerous and it show the level of ignorence of these people. Guatemala and Salvatore and Venezuella are not in better shape also .... We have to help all these country, i wish a future where the economic opportunity will be everywhere and where people from Europe and north america will wish to go to Africa who will be strong and united. Amen.
the black community needs to build its own social and socio-economic initiatives. Enough with allowing the government and some random people to speak for and represent us. This aint it right here

Reading these comments and I already feel sorry for my black brothers and sisters In America. I couldn't imagine living with such ignorant people. At least Trump is gone so that's a start
@Rabbit Hole During the presidential debate, Trump completely dodged the question about him addressing his white supremacist supporters and the KKK.
@Rabbit Hole Yes he did.

As she was saying in the beginning, I want to know why the police raided her house when she was young, because she was black or because there was criminal activity at her house?
Just remember: if the police arrest a black murderer, it's racist. But if they arrest a white murderer, it isn't racist. It's just common sense!
Now that we know it was all a scam how do y’all feel?

BLM is not simply a family issue, you simply cannot say this w/o acknowledging the systematic oppressions the family has experienced. If the family has not experienced this? Congratulations, you are white.
@@chi4071 There are no systematic oppressions in America in 2020. My husband is black and has been saying this for years. Intelligent black people see it for what it is. A pathetic excuse to disregard personal responsibility.
@@chi4071 You also sound really jealous of white people. It's pretty damn cringe worthy.
@@chi4071 Try and do some research. BLM is really not really a black movement. They are actually using this black issue to create chaos because if you follow the $$ and the history, you will find that BLM is actually a marxist movement. Unfortunately, they took this info off of their website but i believe you might be able to find it somewhere. I don't hate blacks, whites, green, red, yellow or pink. To me, they are all people. But what ever color u r, if you do wrong, color has nothing to do with it. It's your heart and soul that is distorted. We all need to seek peace inside of ourselves to overcome this hatred one heart at a time.
how about start with family values and strong work ethic. start with self first in the culture.
not to say racism doesnt exist, but instead of jus pointin the finger at society and others, take a step back and do some introspective evaluation too
That's what I'm saying
