If you are willing to hear the BLM grievances

74. Is BLM also working with Hillary on a plan? She's the front runner candidate and not

exempt from becoming involved in this very impt. matter just because she isn't active on the campaign trail like Bernie now. Hillary's definitely around, has the time and staff. And she is, as BLM knows probably the one who will be in the WH next although I'm pulling for Bernie.

I've wondered also for more than a year, about where our govt. is on this? -the DOJ, national and state, and governors and police depts.? I've heard very little about definite strategic action and solutions for this brutal, tragic and national epidemic of racist attacks and killings that are widespread and growing. Can and will BLM approach and demand time of state governors and AJs? And city mayors? Or have they tried? And it is clear that elected reps. and govt. officials should be initiating policy. I'm listening, willing to hear, learn and do more. My entire life has been directly involved with black lives matter in our country and in my family.

A Thought: When the ebola epidemic commanded national attention for two months it was in M$M 24/7, then the scare disappeared the very day after the 2014 election was over. Nada. This matter is far more pressing and destructive to this county now and there's not much deep effort from the media except incidents reporting.

As far as Bernie, he's handled public events where there's been some controversy and disruption to some extent no doubt throughout his public career of 40 years. He is familiar with protesting and organizing from as far back as his college involvement with Civil Rights. His history of advocating and supporting programs and policies to benefit working people, PoC and others is well documented and should be more known.
While on stage the host informed Bernie that his speech had to be cut short by 15 mins. IMO the mgmt. should have taken control, handled the issue as necessary at large events. This situation was managed in an unprofessional and negligent way to me, and all parties suffered, the BLM message effort, the invited political guests and the host who was confused but tried to keep it together.
