".... there’s nothing inherently, in my view, controversial or complicated or challenging or provocative (about the phrase "Black Lives Matter").
Unless you were so committed to white supremacy, unless you’re so committed to racial hierarchy, unless you’re so committed to the status quo that you see a threat in the idea that we’re going to now have to think differently about the ways in which we have tolerated the victimization and exploitation of Black people, then I can see how it would be provocative. But if you’re not aligned with those outcomes, then you should embrace the notion.
From a Q&A in this morning's Washington Post.
