I understand the need to jump in to add in the extra layer, BUT honestly, whites are jumping at the opportunity to switch the focus from BLM to LGBTQ and Black LGBTQ are falling for it and making it so easy for whites to strip the full power of BLM before it csn take effect, just handing whites a way to escape BLM.
People's memory is so short! How many times have Blacks started civil change only for everyone but Blacks to truly benefit from it?
IMO Black LGBTQ need to focus on race first, let the momentum for BLM get fully established with clear goals for societal change for Black people first. Race is what people notice first before sexuality.
I am not saying to leave them out or allow them to continue to be discriminated against for their sexuality.
I AM saying/warning against making the Black LGBTQ the face of the BLM Movement when it is just now getting off the ground.
BLM---> Black LGBTQ ---->LGBTQ---> white LGBTQ---> What BLM Movement?
See how that trend works?
