The moves have triggered mutiny in the ranks. Ten local chapters are severing ties with the Black Lives Matter Global Network, as the national leadership is known. They are furious that Patrisse Cullors, its remaining co-founder, assumed the role of executive director of the group and made these decisions without their input. That’s a move, that, to some, signaled a rebuke of its “leaderful” structure, which gave every member an equal say and kept anyone — including a founder — from overreaching.
The operations of Black Lives Matter have always been opaque, with thousands of members and dozens of affiliates. Two of its three co-founders are no longer affiliated with the movement — even as they continue to represent Black Lives Matter on TV. Local Black Lives Matter activists say national leaders cut them off from funding and decision-making, leaving them broke and taking the movement in a direction with which they fundamentally disagree. And as the Black Lives Matter movement grows in influence, with millions in donations and celebrity endorsements, local organizers argue they’re the ones in the streets pushing for change — and they’re not getting their due.
I see, you look at a minority of people and assume they represent all those of that interest, race or genome...Do all white people eat watermelon also?Black Lives Matter power grab sets off internal revolt
At issue is whether grassroots energy can translate to influence inside the Beltway — and at what cost.

And white people are supposed to respect their opinions about how to reform government, which they cannot articulate or compose into practical directive systems.

From the beginning, Black Lives Matter was a grassroots effort, born in the streets with no central hierarchy.
People with no morals in BLM--they are now fighting among themselves for more power to extort more money from businesses and government...those in charge get the kickback extortion money. This is actually how community organizing has always been in black communities. It has never really been about the community but how to shakedown money from businesses and the government to prevent the community from attacking and rioting. They really should all be treated as the criminals that they are.Black Lives Matter power grab sets off internal revolt

You're one twisted spear chucker. Have you ever read a book?I have to laugh at a group of people who have started 2 World Wars talking about how blacks can't organize a community because a couple of people in BLM had an argument. What's even funnier is the same people talking this bullshit are clamoring for a civil war, basically because they can't have their way.
