As an anti-racism organization founded by a Black person, the phrase “Black Lives Matter” or the “Black Lives Matter Movement” often becomes a point of discussion. It is easily understandable how or why the confusion can arise; however, it is important for us to draw a clear and visible distinction from the aforementioned movement/phrase and #racismstinks.

With social movements like “Black Lives Matter,” “All Lives Matter,” and “Blue Lives Matter,” discussions about race and racism have moved to the forefront when dissecting the problems America faces on its own soil. If any one of these movements have caused self-reflection or even pain, it’s time to start having difficult conversations about race in our society.
