I believe that BLM is a spiritual movement indeed. The linked JSTOR article makes a strong case for this idea. The article states in its conclusion, "Today, Black Lives Matter remains a potent force for racial justice. Yet media coverage of the movement frequently continues to paint it in simplistic terms that ignore the way its vision of justice intertwines with healing and spirituality." I agree with this statement fully. I know that I have to be spiritually grounded in this work as it permeates all aspects of life as a Black Man.

I think BLM movement is a spiritual movement because we have a lot going on, when we were growing up. Black Lives Matter shows that racial injustice needs to stop, this will cause more ruckus. Also they have spiritual circles to honor our ancestors.

I believe BLM is spiritual movement because it helps us black people connect with our higher self as a WHOLE instead of ONE , 3 is always greater than one . but it takes ONE to do a hateful act that's why as 3( speaking for ALL ) we can stand up for ourself and try to prove these people wrong and show them our true colors of being BLACK .

I think the BLM movement can be a spiritual movement because black people can connect with each other. We can have a conversation about the well being of ourselves and our families. Maybe we all can truly face and overcome the oppression we are currently facing
