Some things I’m thinking about that should change (in that Southern, black grandmama voice):
1. White people, if you don’t have any descendants, will your property to a black or brown family. Preferably one that lives in generational poverty.
2. White people, if you’re inheriting property you intend to sell upon acceptance, give it to a black or brown family. You’re bound to make that money in some other white privileged way.
3. If you are a developer or realty owner of multi-family housing, build a sustainable complex in a black or brown blighted neighborhood and let black and brown people live in it for free.
4. White people, if you can afford to downsize, give up the home you own to a black or brown family. Preferably a family from generational poverty.
5. White people, if any of the people you intend to leave your property to are racists assholes, change the will, and will your property to a black or brown family. Preferably a family from generational poverty.
6. White people, re-budget your monthly so you can donate to black funds for land purchasing.
7. White people, especially white women (because this is yaw specialty — Nosey Jenny and Meddling Kathy), get a racist fired. Yaw know what the # they be saying. You are complicit when you ignore them. Get your boss fired cause they racist too.
8. Backing up No. 7, this should be easy but all those sheetless Klan, Nazi’s and Other lil’ dick-white men will all be returning to work. Get they ass fired. Call the police even: they look suspicious.
9. OK, backing up No. 8, if any white person at your work, or as you enter in spaces and you overhear a white person praising the actions from yesterday, first, get a pic. Get their name and more info. Hell, find out where they work — Get Them Fired. But certainly address them, and, if you need to, you got hands: use them.
10. Commit to two things: Fighting white supremacy where and how you can (this doesn’t mean taking up knitting, unless you’re making scarves for black and brown kids in need), and funding black and brown people and their work.

I'm going to get flamed but here it goes...
Didn't the black race already have most of that not to long ago? Free housing, food, land to live on. All they had to do was a little work in the fields..
I only say this mean sarcastic joke because F BLM...
There is some sense to that.
If there ancestors where not brought to the USA then there descendents would not exist. Certainly there descendents would not have the privilege of living in a civilised western country with all the luxurys its entails and instead be living in a war torn, super corrupt ,malaria infested failed state with zero hope in life.
Some times in history terrible things lead to good things.
UK got invaded, enslaved and pillaged constantly for about a 1000 years from 55BC to 1066 be it by Romans, Saxons or vikings but those events and the atrocities that followed forged a nation that has lasted nearly 1000 years and become one of the most richest powerful nations in existence (and spawning the USA).
African -Americans need to quite there victimisation and whinging and instead honour there ancestors while appreciating the benifits they enjoy because of there sacrifice.

They should have received compensation from slave owners at the time. The slave owners should have been required to pay for their trip back. The trip back to Africa should have been required, with the stipulation that they may return on their own in the future to legally and correctly immigrate to the US.

No it's quite genuine, written by the BLM founder herself.
