Soeren Kern | Gatestone Institute<\/a> | September 30, 2020<\/p>\n

This multi-part series (Part I here<\/a>, Part II here<\/a>, Part III here<\/a>, Part IV here<\/a>) focuses on the perspectives of blacks \u2014 conservative, liberal or libertarian \u2014 who appraise BLM and its agenda. The following selection of commentary by blacks from all walks of life \u2014 actors, athletes, businesspeople, civil rights activists, clergy, commentators, physicians and politicians \u2014 demonstrates that black public opinion is not monolithic, and that BLM does not speak for all African Americans.<\/p>\n

We are individuals and we have our own individual opinions.”<\/p>\n
