Honestly it got my kids talking about racism… And it’s been very positive to discuss…

The Euro football “Respect” campaign has been an influencer…

Racism is harmful and degrades
We all can play a role in making better societies

I heard George Floyd’s brother say All Lives Matter.
That is only true when Black Lives Matter to the Cops.

Ahh yes, you are so right that racists and bigots are so entrenched in their bitter and twisted thinking that they are unlikely to change.. but see the point is, that the rest of us, the sane and reasoning ones DO take notice and we try to live our lives in a better and more enlightened way. I can only feel pity for those who are so resistant to learning to be better human beings and who prefer a path of ignorance.
You might well ask if anyone stopped being racist because of the civil rights movement, or Martin Luther King. But he made people aware of what was going on and the legal racism that was a fact of life in this country. It was up to people how they accepted that information and came to understand the injustice of the situation.

Likewise, BLM addressed the killing of unarmed black people by law enforcement, which has continued unabated over 50 years after MLK’s death. It won’t stop people who are racist now either; many still believe they’re justified. Doesn’t mean it’s unnecessary, as long as people are still dying.

"With all disrespect
I don't really like you white motherfuckers, that's just where I'm at
Screaming "All Lives Matter"
Is a protest to my protest, what kind of shit is that?"-Joyner

I think you just have to look at it as the name of the protest, of course all lives matter, but you take away the point that they are trying to fight for when you try to come back with that.
