Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Not denying your claim but also not positive per se, just a question:
Whats are the biggest injustices trump administration actively convoked against people with African American roots so far?
I don't understand how your question relates to my comment, you can go see the numbers of people who participated in BLM on Wikipedia its 15-26 million.
I'm not playing dumb weasely games about oh is trump realy racist or not, fuck outta here with that. He was sued over racial discrimination in his private life and his policies are actively erasing nonwhite people from the history of the United States as we speak.
I just wanna know what they think "convoked" means.
It has the tone of some sovcit bullshit pseudo-legalese.
Reddit isn't sending their best
I wish you the best in life
im non native(German), its the first thing the dictionary gave me for "hervorrufen".. its the wrong word sorry. it somehow saw it as "einberufen" is my guess.
Im sorry if it sounded that way. That was not intended. I am not American and am interested in what ways the BLM movement has not affected the society.
Isnt that your claim?

Doesnt work for me, could you please screenshot. Would be very interested!
See also this and this for more information.
Oh I can see the problem, kinda I think?
I am seriously just unaware since I didn't follow American news when BLM was happening.
If I'm interested, what should I do different?
There's no good answer for this to someone who legitimately is curious but lacks even the most base knowledge of the topic. But the answer I give to seemingly good faith participants is to not come into an active conversation that's already into the weeds and ask basic questions that could be answered by a simple Google search. Failure to do so will be seen as bad faith participation because this is the same tactic that bad faith participants use and it's not worth the average person's energy to dig through a profile to see whether or not they may be a good faith participant.
TLDR - If you don't put in the effort before asking a basic question about a controversial topic, people likely won't put forth the energy to engage in a productive manner when it appears you have not done so as well.
Woah very well said, I see. Thank you, will definitly try to keep the latter in mind!
