Where is BLM Now?
After surfing the headlines the day after the inauguration I am not finding anything BLM related. I do see a few articles talking about Antifa tearing up a Starbucks (apparently the original) in Seattle, and the Democratic party HQ in Portland. Absent is the steady drumbeat of Black Lives mattering that has been pounding throughout the last year.
A visit to their website shows that they had a “We Keep Us Safe” community call on the 19th, but no mention of any action going forward.
We do have this headline on Brietbart: Black Lives Matter Celebrates MLK Day with ‘Twerk on Washington’ Video
That is a far cry from the direct action of last summer. It will be interesting to see if they fold themselves into the greater Democratic Party, or keep the separation so they can publicly pull the party further to the left.
Maybe so
They were useful before the election, not so much now.
