MUST READ! There’s a big difference between the boots-on-the-ground work of #BlackLivesMatter Grassroots v. the entity that was hijacked by a band of thieves who use the movement’s dollars to enrich themselves and misrepresent who we are.
Setting this right here and pinning. Black Lives Matter Grassroots IS #BlackLivesMatter ! laprogressive.com/racism/mur…

Karmelo Anthony faces an all-white jury, no Black alternates, and a white Republican judge as he fights for his life...again. Last year, the 17-year-old was forced to defend himself when he was attacked by white bullies at a track meet. #FreeKarmelo kwtx.com/2026/06/04/jury-sea…

I’m devastated to hear about the loss of Andrew Joseph Jr. As a beloved organizer, movement builder, & family man, I was proud to partner with him on legislation to end qualified immunity & honor his son. I pray for his wife Deanna, his daughter Deja, & the entire Black Lives Matter Grassroots family.

There is no complete national database tracking our missing. Cases are scattered across tribal, state, and federal systems that do not communicate with each other. Families file reports that never make it to federal databases.
