The only way it’s an ignorant and not a racist statement is if the individual is not saying it in reference to Black Lives Matter. You don’t want to let go of your assumption that people saying it mean no harm. Your welcome to keep thinking that. Maybe it makes you feel optimistic. However, that’s just not the truth ma’am. Most people saying it are saying it to be racist. The individuals you are speaking about who are ignorant about it are not the norm, they are the exception to the role. Yet your focus on defending their ignorance demonstrates you don’t want to understand the truth. Go on Facebook, Twitter, or Google and type in All Lives Matter. You don’t have to believe me. You will see for yourself that most people using this phrase aren’t ignorant about what they are doing.
