If they're really all that concerned about bigotry in general, why segregate their base? Why not something more generalized and inclusive, unless they're just trying to ride the BLM coattails in some petty attempt to feel that they have the same issues and the same level of political relevance on a social platform that doesn't warrant it.
Au contraire, if there was a fight between two people of different races and one of them was white, I'm afraid that the white person would be arrested because the other would play the "race-card", which is the norm in the United Kingdom.
