What have you done so far to support Black Lives Matters?

[JohnCena]

Sign petitions, protests, start shopping more at local black businesses?

 

[LRW20]

Nothing, Alhamdulillah

 

[farax]

Nothing because I am not black

 

[Caaro]

Nothing, but only because a lot of the things I can do won't make a difference so I don't bother wasting my time. If I could really help in a way that would impact I would.

But I wouldn't help BLM directly, I'd support black charities and businesses (including Somalis). I don't trust BLM, it seems sketchy

I have set up a fake gofundme for blm all the funds will be funding me

 

[celidheere]

I no black so nothing

 

[Keo]

I only support #JusticeForShukriAbdi

If you read the BLM website they are on some other shit anyway makes no sense as a Muslim to support BLM

Even if you aren't black it doesn't mean you can't help. White people are also helping.

Not to mention you stand to gain from this. Since everyone else sees you as black, whatever dub the blm gains, you will also gain.

Being Anti-BLM won't make change people's perception of somalis as black, it won't get you in bed with the white man either.

I hate the black label, I don’t wanna associate with thugs

Dont get guilt tripped by the news and social media! THIS is BLM's ideology and the values they stand for, as a muslim I will never support that nonsense, I can be against the injustice and help in other ways.

All you guys on this thread read it for yourself:

You can't do anything about it though. Might as well use it to your advantage.

There are more important things than whether youre black or not lol I never see my asian (pakistani) friends discussing whether they are asian/brown/yellow.
At least whilst youre in the west youre seen as black but identify as you wish
