Walker stumbles through Black Lives Matter question

Many critics have complained that Black Lives Matter activists lack proposals for real change. “White lives matter, ‘ which is true”.

“It’s really a beautifully diverse movement”, said labor organizer Aaron Goggans, a founding member of the DC chapter.

Huckabee said he received death threats for integrating an all-white church as a pastor 35 years ago.

Disrupting politicians seems to be the major way BLM is grabbing attention, although the group said on its website that it “embrace(s) a diversity of tactics”. Hillary Clinton also told Jones that “I don’t believe you change hearts”. And specifically in this instance, in – when we’re talking about the presidential race, the president of the United States is expected to have certain understandings around economics, around foreign policy, et cetera.

Republican presidential nomination candidate Scott Walker dismissed suggestions he would meet with leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement Friday. Tweeting, “Out of LOVE for my family, I’ve never gone public with my racial story because it’s hurtful, scandalous, and it’s MY STORY”. “Who knows who that is”.

He responded by saying, “Black lives matter”. The use of deadly force by police against black males is very rare. However, the movement took on an even larger visibility when it began focusing on the white police officers that shot and killed unarmed black males in Ferguson, MO; Cleveland and Cincinnati OH; North Charleston, South Carolina and Charlotte, NC; as well as black people who died while in police custody in Staten Island, NY, Baltimore, MD and in a county jail in Texas.

A vast majority of Republicans and independent voters – 88 percent and 80 percent respectively – chose “all lives matter” over “black lives matter”. This anger is connected to deep class grievances over ever-rising economic inequality, unemployment and poverty, as well as racism by police directed at African-Americans, Hispanics and other minorities.

The Black Lives Matter group has rose to prominence following that shooting and several other cases in which blacks died after encounters with the police. It speaks on behalf of a section of the middle class, wedded to race politics, that is looking for more perks and positions, particularly within or through the intercession of the Democratic Party.

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton recently met with activists and urged practical steps.
