i am not sure that i share this young woman's life experience. however, i do understand her anger. i do not however, agree with her actions, or support her rhetoric. but i do understand the rage that stems from being helpless to stop the senseless slaughter of people who look like me. i do not, however, agree with the tactic of insisting on silencing sanders in order to be heard. nor do i agree with some of the responses to that tactic, and not just from sanders supporters. and finally: i really do not support her message. i don't think anyone needs to bowdown so that others may rise up. nor do i believe sanders needs to be held accountable because of the white supremacy of his supporters...or whatever the hell she said. nor do i believe that warmed-over 70's black nationalism is a stance that is a viable or even reasonable position. nor do i believe that destroying the democratic party is a noble goal.
i have heard quite enough from her, thank you very much. i am really curious, however, to hear what Symone Sanders, a BLM activist and Sanders' new press secretary has to say. she wants to integrate BLM into the Sanders campaign.
