| As country listens to Florida teens, Black Lives Matter youths feel ignored | |
| 2018-02-27 | |
[ChicagoTribune] The young people of Black Lives Matter are hurt. And they have every right to be.When they were protesting in the streets of cities across America, much of the country didn't bother to listen to their message. They were not embraced by the mainstream for their bravery, their determination or resolve to bring attention to reckless police killings that disproportionately impact young African-Americans. Some labeled them troublemakers, even terrorists. And in the aftermath of the student uprising over the mass shooting in Parkland, Fla., they are taking to social media to vent their disappointment. | |
