How can one tell what is a "real" BlackLivesMatter website and what is not? Is there such a thing?

Is there a real organization or just a hashtag with sympathetic supporters?

In the aftermath of Bernie Sanders getting shut down at his rally earlier I can't for the life of me figure out whether there is a real organization that has either claimed credit or apologized for the incident, or if there is any way to do so.

Aren't there usually a bunch of "flash" insta-polls after any high profile debate? What gives?

Even though it's super early and it's the first primary debate, I'd figure this Trump fiesta would garner more interest than any debate in recent times and news organs would want to cash in on the easy clickbait of polling the immediate fallout.
