BLM Manifesto Discussion

Nozebleed

How realistic are BLM being here with their manifesto?

http://archive.is/dGyqs


We demand an end to the war against Black people. Since this country’s inception there have been named and unnamed wars on our communities. We demand an end to the criminalization, incarceration, and killing of our people. This includes:

1 An immediate end to the criminalization and dehumanization of Black youth across all areas of society including, but not limited to; our nation’s justice and education systems, social service agencies, and media and pop culture. This includes an end to zero-tolerance school policies and arrests of students, the removal of police from schools, and the reallocation of funds from police and punitive school discipline practices to restorative services.

2 An end to capital punishment.

3 An end to money bail, mandatory fines, fees, court surcharges and “defendant funded” court proceedings.

4 An end to the use of past criminal history to determine eligibility for housing, education, licenses, voting, loans, employment, and other services and needs.

5 An end to the war on Black immigrants including the repeal of the 1996 crime and immigration bills, an end to all deportations, immigrant detention, and Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) raids, and mandated legal representation in immigration court.

6 An end to the war on Black trans, queer and gender nonconforming people including their addition to anti-discrimination civil rights protections to ensure they have full access to employment, health, housing and education.

7 An end to the mass surveillance of Black communities, and the end to the use of technologies that criminalize and target our communities (including IMSI catchers, drones, body cameras, and predictive policing software).

8 The demilitarization of law enforcement, including law enforcement in schools and on college campuses.

9 An immediate end to the privatization of police, prisons, jails, probation, parole, food, phone and all other criminal justice related services.

10 Until we achieve a world where cages are no longer used against our people we demand an immediate change in conditions and an end to all jails, detention centers, youth facilities and prisons as we know them. This includes the end of solitary confinement, the end of shackling of pregnant people, access to quality healthcare, and effective measures to address the needs of our youth, queer, gender nonconforming and trans families.

I disagree that black youths are dehumanised in American society. Yes to removing police from schools.

Agree, but it is a state issue is it not?

Agree though it should be up to the judge whether bail is offered or not. Disagree re mandatory fines.

Disagree re housing, loans, employment and depends on what they mean by other services. I agree re licenses (with the exception of a gun license), voting and education

And I repeat:

That systemic racism exists hasn't been proven.
A black man has more to fear from another black man than a white police officer.

Seems a bit risky removing police/security from schools with the amount of school shootings they get. First big school shooting after its done, there'll be war and they'll just be brought back in

No systematic racism over there doesn't exist. I still thing some of those reforms are worthwhile, particularly in respect of demilitarising the police.

I'd also be advocating for an end to government lobbying, the 2 party system (i.e. it is mandated that at least 3 parties get to take part in presidential debates, but no more than 5 (too crowded)). They need to find a way to make college education more affordable aswell, that doesn't discriminate based on race.

'This is just your usual hocus-pocus progressive rubbish'

3 decades of identity politics dismantled in a sentence.

According to Wikipedia they want

Reparations for the:
"wealth extracted from" the black communities "through environmental racism, slavery, food apartheid, housing discrimination and racialized capitalism in the form of corporate and government reparations";

Most of these don't make sense. Environmental racism? Food apartheid?
What makes more sense is slavery, but no black person in US today was ever a slave, nor their father and no white person a slave owner, nor their father.

But - Saudi Arabia and Yemen didn't abolish slavery until 1962 because of pressure from Britain.
If you know a person from there it's possible you know an actual slave owner's son/daughter.

Mr. Karate

They even wanted 5 States to themselves at one point iirc. And then to secede from the US.

Rodney Bathgate

They have millions of white ‘useful idiots’ onside to push this ludicrous manifesto. This will end well.

paw patrol

This is one of their aims from their website

We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.

The family is the cornerstone of western society.
These are dangerous people. Of course the useful idiots don't see that cos they have the feel good factor of combatting racism (which is a good thing) not realise who they are attaching themselves too thus giving BLM an even louder voice.

This is marxism pure and simple. They don't want equality they want to destroy our society and herald in whatever sh1thole they envisage in their minds

And they have people lapping this up.

SporadicMan

I'm glad that people are waking up to them being a radical, racist and destructive organisation.

If only the useful idiots could see the same. Won't happen until Instagram and celebrities tell them so.

It's so depressing how much developed societies can be undermined by intelligent social media brainwashing.

the purple tin

Why do they want body cameras removed from police? Surely it's better to have everything on tape if someone makes a complaint against an officer.

Most of those things are bog standard human rights in other countries, including Ireland.

whippet

most of this is just American society - remove 'black' from that list and it could apply to any community in the US

The US is broken.

In no way am I suggesting that there is an issue with systematic racism in the US - its just these generic statements can be applied to almost all communities in the US

1 An immediate end to the criminalization and dehumanization of Black youth across all areas of society including, but not limited to; our nation’s justice and education systems, social service agencies, and media and pop culture. This includes an end to zero-tolerance school policies and arrests of students, the removal of police from schools, and the reallocation of funds from police and punitive school discipline practices to restorative services.
A lot to unpack, I think media portrayal will change for sure, they'll be more aware. Stopping the arrest of students full stop seem stupid. I doubt they can remove police altogether with the prevalence of guns in America. More funding for restorative services sounds good

2 An end to capital punishment.
Agree, it seems ineffective in pretty much every measure, not sure why it's in their manifesto though

3 An end to money bail, mandatory fines, fees, court surcharges and “defendant funded” court proceedings.
Yup sounds good

4 An end to the use of past criminal history to determine eligibility for housing, education, licenses, voting, loans, employment, and other services and needs.
Agreed, any sort of criminal record in the states f/ucks you for life. Once you serve your punishment that should be it, outside of sex offenders etc.

5 An end to the war on Black immigrants including the repeal of the 1996 crime and immigration bills, an end to all deportations, immigrant detention, and Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) raids, and mandated legal representation in immigration court.
Disagree, although the detention centers are shi/te. Enforcing whatever immigration rules a country has is important

6 An end to the war on Black trans, queer and gender nonconforming people including their addition to anti-discrimination civil rights protections to ensure they have full access to employment, health, housing and education.
Sure? If they're excluded now stick them on the list "All humans have the right..."

7 An end to the mass surveillance of Black communities, and the end to the use of technologies that criminalize and target our communities (including IMSI catchers, drones, body cameras, and predictive policing software).
Awful call, bodyworn cameras are a net good for everyone and some of the footage captured by them is highlighting police brutality in these very protests. Protects the officers wearing them and the public facing them. Even their presence makes people consider their actions. Rubbish point.

8 The demilitarization of law enforcement, including law enforcement in schools and on college campuses.
Basically impossible with the amount of guns in the states but a reform is needed for sure. No need for the tanks and not-quite-army men roaming around. More accountability for use of all force is needed

9 An immediate end to the privatization of police, prisons, jails, probation, parole, food, phone and all other criminal justice related services.
Big yes, absolute farce of a system that motivates keeping prisoners and encourages recidivism

10 Until we achieve a world where cages are no longer used against our people we demand an immediate change in conditions and an end to all jails, detention centers, youth facilities and prisons as we know them. This includes the end of solitary confinement, the end of shackling of pregnant people, access to quality healthcare, and effective measures to address the needs of our youth, queer, gender nonconforming and trans families.
An end to all jails is just silly. Same for no shackling of pregnant people. Access to healthcare for all sounds good.

Good post, but on your last point, they're not calling for an end to jails, that would be silly they have said an "end to jails.. as we know them" Which is perfectly justified in America. Johnny cash was singing about San Quentin many years ago


I also believe the shackling should also only be used if there is a real risk of violence. Pregnant woman should not need to be shackled. We don't do that.

All manifesto are aspirational to a point, but I could agree with most of that.
Even if partially implemented it would benefit more than just the black community.

So that they can claim that any armed suspects were unarmed and the police don’t have incontrovertible proof that the suspect was armed and did draw and did engage in threatening behaviour.

They know that their target audience will give the suspect the benefit of the doubt. Even if the suspect has a record the length of my arm.

Poor reading comprehension on my part there. And probably my misunderstanding of shackling (I thought they were exaggerating being handcuffed which maybe they aren't?). I agree though, there are some good points which will benefit society as a whole.

Pregnant "people".

I wonder how many black people were actually consulted about what they wanted, before a small minority of idiots took it upon themselves to write that tripe claiming their opinions were representative of black people.

I presumed shackling was the feet and hands cuffed, maybe I'm wrong.

I hadn't noticed the "pregnant people" term. Don't have any issue with that.

suicide_circus

Gentle reminder about modern life in The West: this is the least racist society, in the least racist part of the world, in the least racist era to have ever existed.

Context.

Eric Cartman

They basically want a return to the policing model which saw 80s new york as a cesspit of crime where nobody was safe.

I see nothing in that manifesto about looking for educatuon and alternative training to keep young black people awa from crime, I see nothing about access to business loans or promotion of job opportunities and businesses in the community.

Reads like a pavee point manifesto

They're a black supremacist movement, with the goal of tearing down white aspects of society. No amount of appeasement will ever be enough to satisfy them.

i disagree with most of these, but surely BLM must 1st prove that all the above are being perpetrated against the black community due to racism.

and they want an end to body cams? that cant be right surely?!

It's also worth remembering that BLM does not "speak for" black people in the States (or anywhere else for that matter) as if they're some homogenous group with a hive mind...although admittedly that is the DNC's view of black folk.

Odhinn wrote: »

White Euro-American culture, history and institutions. Understand, I agree with many of the reforms listed above and recognise the areas where black communities have been systematically discriminated against.

I don't, however, feel ashamed for my background, nor guilt for the circumstances of my birth. They don't seek equality, they seek primacy.

Who is funding them do you know? Also I wonder who it was exactly that came up with those demands and decided that they can speak for every black person in the country, without any discussion with communities? No ballots, polls, feedback etc?

perhaps they will run in elections? They will need to disclose donations then (I think). Do BLM have ambitions of running in elections?

Richard Hillman

They are basically proposing to introduce a similar system to what we have. Be soft on crime, hamstringing police on being effective, have U18s practically immune from being convicted of crimes. That has been a rip roaring success :pac:

I think they will eventually go down the London route of the softly-softly approach. Ending stop and search etc. All a disaster.

I genuinely think that leaders want their areas to become true ****holes, how they can gain from it politically. I'm starting to think that people from these areas are starting to realise this too.

That is not a "Manifesto" for "Black Lives Matter"

It's a Manifesto for The "Movement for Black Lives" ("M4BL")- which seems to be an organisation that is independent of BLM

Exactly. There's absolutely nothing about improving the quality of life for Black people within black culture. Nothing about the destructive elements of Black culture such as single mothers, domestic violence, drugs, criminal organisations, peer pressure, school dropouts, etc.

All the problems are external. It's everyone else's fault that they are this way. Which is why this is a pipedream in terms of actually helping black people in the US, because there is no interest in resolving the root issues within black culture in the US.

Think of any movie/film directed by a black person, and you'll see a host of social issues which are connected directly to their own culture... but you won't see BLM or most Black activists seeking help to resolve them. Instead, the focus is entirely about their oppressors.

Any person that comes up to you wanting you to look at any sort of "manifesto" is a good indication to run as far away from that person as fast as you can

biko

I suppose this could go under manifesto
It's from Louisville-based Black Lives Matter leader Chanelle Helm

White people, here are 10 requests from a Black Lives Matter leader

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.

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.

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 .....

I'll get right on that...

Tbh, it's so crazy I seriously doubt it's really real.

But it is from the book "The Rise of White Patriarchal Nationalism: A Personal Journey" by Daniel Gregg, also author of "How to Capture and Tame a Wild China Girl"

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.

It's not about equality, it's a desire for revenge and the opportunity to be the ones holding the whip. The worst part are the simperong idiots in the white community who agree with this.

It's actually worse, because the US holds such an important position within the western world. Oh, I know many on boards will get outraged by the idea of a western world, but that's only because they've never spend extensive time outside of western nations. The point being that the achievement of these "goals" or anything similar will weaken the US significantly, simply because they'll be wasting so many resources on civil instability.

The BLM achieving it's goals won't mean the end of it's movement. Feminism didn't disappear when they achieved equality. Instead, their objectives shifted to cover a broader sense of discrimination, and needs to become "more equal". It'll be the same with BLM or any black rights movement, simply because they're following the same book for change.

Feminism began the issues of identity politics in the US through arguments/debates and theoretical papers in academia which were pushed into the public consciousness, later spawning the push for PC behavior/controls. A successful BLM movement will do the same with racism, especially since the idea that White people can't be discriminated against or understand racism, has already been established within many people. It's become accepted by many, especially within university campuses, who after graduation will become the next managers, psychologists, doctors, solicitors, and politicians. It will become established within the framework of society, just as, many aspects of feminist ideology did.... even as people were dismissing it as crackpot rubbish.

The problem is that these movements are so shortsighted. Or perhaps they don't care. Radical change doesn't stay tightly bound within the framework of the original thinkers. It's going to grow, change, and become something else entirely. TBH I suspect it will spawn what they're seeking to destroy. A genuine response to racist accusations by being truly racist. Not as the KKK or such, but something much worse.

And the rest of the world will feel the effects of that friction. And it will spread like a cancer throughout western culture. The BLM or those protesting in Ireland/UK is a good indication of that. The attitudes of those online arguing about US issues but finding/forcing comparisons within European culture, are going to make sure anything that happens in the US, is repeated here.

Which weakens us all.
