It's not that hard to grasp, mate.
so sorry 'mate' but we are not talking about you... Read the OP This thread is about the published BLM manifesto called "the movement or The vision for black lives." I left a link to it.
If you could be made to read past your martyrdom you'd see that black lives matter is wanting it's own subgovernment for black people and a political stake in government for everyone else. They are effectively asking for a double standard in a unified nation. Black people play by their own rules, the US governement is to turn over land possible whole cities for 'reparations' and the 'right for black people to own their communities' (it just depends of their definition of community) BLM is also Demanding that they police themselves. And have full share in the rest of the country's government to set rules and regs for everyone else concerning black people.
The last time demands like this were made was in 1861 just before the civil war. the succession/duality of government in one nation, is what brought on the battle of ft Sumter, and the subsequent war.
Need I remind you what happened to that 'minority' of southern white democrats?
