    The goal of BLM is that Black Lives Matter and they are disproportionately subjected to police brutality and tougher sentences and there is systemic racism that affects people getting loans, buying homes, getting jobs, etc.

    White people have enjoyed greater economic success as a result of this policing and various policies and slavery.

    The goal is to level the playing field and give black people the same opportunities white people have enjoyed since this country was founded.

    That's why people say "silence = violence" because if black people are not included or organizations are primarily white, people of color's voices are not heard and implicit biases and systemic problems continue, whether people mean for them to or not.
