What is being missed by the groups out protesting as they post pictures of their massive crowds, is that those crowds are lily white. The women's march was really the white women's march. The tax march was really the white people's tax march. While white people are losing their shit over catching Trump in lies, flip flops, and tax returns, and sharing their hot takes on facebook, the part of the left base that needs to be activated doesn't give a shit and nobody is noticing.
Bullshit, I watched the women's march live on CSPAN, you are flat out lying if you say it was nothing but white women. That march was very diverse. They had black women and Arab women and Native American women and Hispanic women as well as men with different skin tones and backgrounds. Minorities are called minorities for a reason.
No, the tax march was because politicians should not be allowed to hide behind anything. Transparency is what prevents corruption by EITHER party, and utter nonsense to claim that is a skin tone issue.
I disagree.
12% of registered voters are black. That means 20-25% of democrats are black. That's approx between 1 in 4 and 1 in 5.
12% of registered voters are hispanic. They're closer to 70%? democrat. That's 1 in 6ish.
Add those together, that's north of 1 in 3 registered democrats are Black or Hispanic.
Just googled, and took the first results for the women's march:
If more than 1/3rd of your party black and hispanic, it shouldn't feel like Where's Waldo trying to find them.

And I don't dispute that transparency has nothing to do with skin color. I do dispute whether or not minorities give a shit about it. You don't think poor black communities are watching a million white people turn out for tax returns and 'women' in some ambiguous sensel, and wondering what the hell happened to the BLM movement, or the Flint Michigan issues. You listen to Chappelle, Rock, and Che, and there is some definite disdain towards liberal white folks and their dopey marches.
I think BLM got shoved to the back burner the night of the convention when Michelle Obama turned into the white chick from the first episode of the Newsroom who asks the question about "Why do you think America is the Greatest Country on Earth!?" And oh how the white dems cheered! America's the best! And they got all excited. And then come election day, they couldn't figure out why black people didn't come out.
