12. Really? You know it is a Global Movement don't you? One of the biggest movements

in the past several decades. In fact, it was not expected to spread beyond NYC in this country or to last more than two months at least.

But so many people joined it as it struck a chord with the people, it rapidly spread across this country, and despite the unprecedented efforts by a massive law enforcement 'counter movement', it is not only still here it is growing and will grow.

How big was the Civil Rights Movement when it started? This is ONLY the beginning and what a beginning it was. We know how successful it is because of the brutal response to it.

It has deep roots in many communities, I think you should not post about a topic you appear to not know much about, until you learn about it.

Maybe we can help you here, if you questions, ask them.
