[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Here is the basic issue at hand. "Black Lives Matter" is a statement of anti-racism. It should not be conflated with the organization when people say it. So Silverman got it wrong by saying "I hope BLM stands with me on..." And BLMDC should also not confuse themselves with the issue itself. It is perfectly OK to be 100% behind Black Lives Matter as statement, concept, and especially practice and not be 100% behind every idea that BLMDC floats.[/quote] I mostly agree with this and I think you are making a very perceptive distinction. I would only point out that Silverman didn’t hope that “BLM” would stand with her, but rather @DMVBlackLives. [/quote]
