Question.... Regarding Black Lives Matters...

[FarPoint]

I understand there is a 10 point Manifesto....Is there an author to these points? If not....how were they adopted? A friend was asking and I'm clueless. DU is always spot on top of such issues.

2. It's a fine, proactive site...but....

Does not address the BLM question.

Wait...the Kos report clarifying what you are saying... I get it now.

3. DeRay Mckesson & ShordeeDooWhop have been very active in the Black Lives Matter protests

Mckesson has been seen as one of the leaders in the Black Lives Matter movement although he claims only to be an activist.

He's been on TV numerous times to speak in regards to BLM.

Here's a brief video with Mckesson and some background on the creation of Campaign Zero and those ten policy points:
