I personally feel like black people took the hit during BLM pretty hard, it's time for us whities to step up. Hippies or not.

Majority of protesters during BLM were white.

BLM label was used to smear the movement anyways.

I have no idea if that's true across the board, but that definitely was not true in Seattle. Majority were black from my experience.
