    Exactly! BLM isn't saying that only black lives matter, what it's pointing out is that black lives (which are part of all lives) matter, since they have for so long been ignored.

      Yeah, and I thought that adults would understand this, but I see politicians getting it wrong...even Hillary fucking Clinton! She's in front of a congregation at a black church, and she says "all lives matter". It's like, you wouldn't stand up in front of a black church and say "Why don't we have White History Month?" The answer is no, no you would not.

        Unfortunately, I know some adults who do complain that there's no white history month, but it's only when there are no POC around.
