Events pre "BLM" :

* Major economic recession in 2008
* Wallstreet tycoons criminal trails start in 2009
* The documentary "inside job" is released in 2010
* The occupy wallstreet movement begins in 2011

Creation period:

* Trayvon Martin dies
*Criminal trial for George Zimmerman occurs finding him not guilty

*BLM forms due to the verdict

The "appearances"

* In 2014 BLM gets active after Michael brown is killed. Encourages riots.

* BLM appears a year later with the Freddy gray kiling. Encourages riots

* In 2016 many more appearances from them


****quieting period****

* in 2017 BLM becomes less active

* in 2019 many members say they want to move on and that the movement is running its course

****the 2020 resurgence*****

* Covid happens

* Geirge Floyd is killed

* BLM comes back together again and becomes the most active and violent. Riots happen nation wide and in other countries.

** the ghost period****

It's 2023 and BLM is nowhere to be found.

Suspicious anyone?

Theory for this: they appear when the economy is going to ****, a sign of a labour movement begins or pandemic causing economic instability happens. They are a diversion. When things stabilize they disappear.

Where are they now?

There's no way they're a real organization. Otherwise they'd still be active trying to help the black community.

They sound more deep state to me. They aren't a real organization as real organizations don't disappear into nowheresville after controversies end and reappear on cue .

The NAACP has gone nowhere, they're right here with their community. BLM is suspicious.

BLM kind of has disappeared...I don't feel like the world or the US is in a good place right now though in many ways. It's just not about black people at the moment.

if they come back, I will be surprised. They have been proven frauds with all the money they pissed away on themselves.

BLM started off as a grass roots organization the sought to change the perception Society had of Black people and they have failed miserably. All Lives Matter and most of the country was moving beyond its' Racist past but with all the Protests, Riots, and the Looting at the drop of a hat in the name of Social Justice, Racism is coming back. I'm not talking about Racism that results in Violence towards a Black person that happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time but the average White person might have their guard up when faced with a Black person.


We have all seen so many random attacks, so much looting and mass shoplifting, so much senseless violence and sadly the majority of people engaged in all of this are Black people.

I wouldn't want to be a shop keeper in a Black neighborhood out of Fear of being robbed at gun point, shoplifted out of business or have my store looted and burned overnight because the mob was given "space to destroy" by the Elected.



BLM is a now a Terrorist organization that has set Race relations back decades.

When were they trying to help the black community? They've always been about Marxist revolution, with a very thin social justice veil.

Nothing new. All this DE&I stuff is really just one big grift. Create an issue, get people divided on it, then present a solution, then profit.

Median salary for a Diversity officer....$238k

This says BLM is nearly insolvent (although with $80-90 million raised, that's hard to believe.)

And of course Candace Owens' documentary "The Greatest Lie Ever Sold" put quite the spotlight on the organization's scam nature.
