Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Race Grievance Industry has many offspring, but Black Lives Matter is its militant wing and general purpose mob. It attempts to present itself as a grassroots movement spawned from injustice, but in reality, it’s a AstroTurf movement spawned to create racial agitation and lawlessness.
#2 For the last three and a half decades, blacks have accounted for more than half of America’s homicide victims, yet a group that literally calls itself Black Lives Matter somehow didn’t care to exist until Trayvon Martin was killed by George Zimmerman.
#3 There is a generational divide between veterans and rookies within the Black Lives Matter movement. While some, such as Jesse Jackson, have called for calm, others, such as Rep. John Lewis, have said that protesters should respect everyone’s right to be heard.
#4 The Black Lives Matter movement has been torn apart by infighting between the old and new guard. The old guard, led by Al Sharpton, want to co-opt the movement without showing any substantive interest in it.
