Why don't you read this and learn about institutional racism and the governmental policies that shaped today's reality in Ferguson (and many other places in the country.)

All very interesting... and not one BLM protestor has ever read that article or knows anything about any of the items it discusses.
BLM is a fabricated movement based on a fabricated claim ("hands up, don't shoot"). It's a tool created by subversive groups like RevCom to create social unrest and anxiety in an effort to upend our current system. RevCom couldn't care less about black lives.

BLM is a lot like Occupy. Hashtag activism that expanded into the real world. A good idea with all sorts of people attaching themselves. There is no one owner or one vision. It is a loose umbrella of ideas. Some people are seasons activists, some crazies just want attention and other people are trying to figure out the best way to take action on a complicated set of issues.
Attributing anything to the "movement" is futile as it is more like an amoeba than a pyramid.

That's at least partly true, but it doesn't lend them any legitimacy.
You make it easy when almost every accusation that comes out of the mouth of a Leftist is an exercise in psychological projection.
You do pretty well at throwing out accusations, as well. Take just your last post. How do you know that "not one BLM protestor has ever read that article or knows anything about any of the items it discusses"?
But even beyond that, it's just your way of putting down the protesters. Because guess what -- far less than 1% of Americans have read articles by the Economic Policy Institute. In fact, I doubt that you could find 1% of all Americans who have even heard of the Economic Policy Institute. It's for nerds. Nothing wrong with nerds. Nothing wrong with the article. But it's wrong to use not reading the article as a way to put people down, because almost no one has read that article.
