Another thing that makes black people just wanna holler and throw up our hands

20. But this isn't a story about white people

It's a story about Black Lives Matter.

Every story about black people doesn't need to find a way to make white people the focus. It's not like white people don't get enough attention or credit in the media for all manner of things.

This is another example of the tendency of many in the mainstream to not take black people seriously unless and until validated by white people. This story is not about white people supporting Black Lives Matter. It's a story about Black Lives Matter, a movement by and about black people. There are plenty of photos of Black Lives Matters activities featuring black people. This did not need to be illustrated with photos of white people in Black Lives Matters t-shirts.

It's insulting and further evidence of how we're marginalized in and not taken seriously in the media and why we need to have more diversity in newsrooms so that they aren't dominated by people who don't see us.
