I have repeatedly read criticism of the BLM as being a "Marxist" based group. I googled the issue and learned that while two of the founders are self professed Marxist, the movement's belief as outlined on its website aren't necessarily Marxist. Their goals are not anti-capitalist while Marxism certainly is. TMI?

Just a moment...
