that the nature of the movement itself makes defining these principles difficult. I sent Malik
Shabazz a message asking his advice on this as well. Practically speaking, I would have loved to have had a place to go that defines the BLM principles far better than they are on the BLM website in terms of meaning and practical implementation. To me, many of them seem quite vague, and subject to misinterpretation. That's why I was trying to bring in the quotes and other sources, showing how they were spoken of and defined within the movement, as well as, on some articles, criticisms of their approach, or places where their principle, in reality, wasn't matching the actions of the whole (as in the case of Intergenerational or Transgender Affirming, where there is some difficulting in getting those implemented). Again, thanks for the feedback. This has certainly been a learning experience.

completed successfully. I let the professor know my misgivings, but she seemed to think we could do it. Perhaps we simply misunderstood her direction, but given the feedback, I'm thinking that this was something of an impossible assignment, given the subject matter and the way in which it tends to be covered in the media. Again, thanks for the feedback.

This is clearly one of these cases where the instructor doesn't seem to understand how Knowledge works or what Knowledge is.

Thanks for the consideration. You can delete them whenever you like. I have the content in my sandbox. I'm waiting for the professor to become aware of all this and advise me on how she wants us to proceed. As soon as I went through the trainings, I became very uncertain how this project could be

Hello Robert. I appreciate your seeking advice on what do do with these. My goal was to describe each principle in terms of how they are actually thought about and used within the BLM movement. I tried not to make any statement that didn't come directly, or indirectly from a source, but I think

I think you're quite right in that there's a gap between what your assignment is asking for and what we accept in articles. I don't know all the details of what it was you were assigned, but you're certainly not the only one to run into issues. I've brought this to the attention of the education
241:
So, well, I'll try to be nice, but to be clear, these will have to go. What you're doing is not part of the purpose of
Knowledge. I'll give you the option of moving them to a userspace sandbox before I go ahead and delete them, but one way or the other, these are not acceptable article subjects.
