Regardless, the person I was listening to def supported BLM's purpose and supports black equality. Her issue was that she believed BLM is not following through on its purpose of helping black people.
Promises are/would be legislation driven. The movement up until recently was twisted to be a hate group. There is no way legislative change could take place. I appreciate your openess to even have these sort of conversations.
