Whites, what are you upset with?
Black Lives Matters isn't a terrorist group?
Then it's easy to twist your viewpoint.

We saw this in the sixties plenty of times?
When those oppress challenge you?
The Nation of Islam rose to prominence and felt that label.
But not once did anyone step to their security arm Fruit of Islam.

But they were labeled a threat.
But most strong black units are when they protest your mess.
And what group label quick?
The white press.
Who mainly controlled in those days by old white conservative males?

The men of Oakland the Black Panther People Party not at first what they became later?
And what group label them a threat?
Those threaten when blacks or African Americans express the truth?

They been treated unfairly.
They have been discriminated against.
They deserve respect.
They are citizens far from the second class.

And all Black Lives Matters addresses in social injustice.
But to whites, they are the terrorists?

All because WHITES are intimidated to challenge themselves.
Challenge the Klans.
Challenge the fake Nazis in America.
Challenge their own.

When you tackle them?
Then comprehend why Black Lives Matter?
And All Lives Matters sounds good.

But one group crying it the most simply avoiding those issues.
They have been exposed as more racists than before.
