The BLACK LIVES MATTER Global Network is a chapter-based, member-led organization whose mission is to build local power and to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes.
We are expansive. We are a collective of liberators who believe in an inclusive and spacious movement. We also believe that in order to win and bring as many people with us along the way, we must move beyond the narrow nationalism that is all too prevalent in Black communities. We must ensure we are building a movement that brings all of us to the front.
We affirm the lives of Black queer and trans folks, disabled folks, undocumented folks, folks with records, women, and all Black lives along the gender spectrum. Our network centers those who have been marginalized within Black liberation movements.
We are working for a world where Black lives are no longer systematically targeted for demise.
We affirm our humanity, our contributions to this society, and our resilience in the face of deadly oppression.
The call for Black lives to matter is a rallying cry for ALL Black lives striving for liberation.

Get the BLACK LIVES MATTER mug.In reposte to the previous definition, Liverpool are (officially) the most in-form football team in the English Premiership, 5 wins out of the last 6 games (that's even better than Chelski!)
Also, to respond to the mindless fools who post about 'what a shithole' Liverpool is, I'd like to see where they come from.
The city of Liverpool is currently experiencing investment on a massive scale which is precisely why it was nominated (and won) Capital of Culture for 2008 - the high streets are clean, the people are friendly, the museums are fantastic, there are more art galleries (8 in total) than anywhere in the UK (bar London.)
Agreed, there are some 'scallies' about but tell me a city with 500'000+ inhabitants where you would't find any?
FACT: The Liverpudlian accent is far more tolerable (and, according to neutral outsiders, more endearing) than any Mancunian inbred dribble.
In conclusion, don't stereotype just because of some sketch you saw on Harry Enfield... I don't have a moustache, mullet and say, "errrrrrr" every other sentence.

Previous Definer: "I'm a tool and have nothing to do in my life except flip burgers in Wimpy, I will therefore waste my free time by slagging off the city of Liverpool"
Rebuttal: "I suggest you research your incredulous, narrow-minded, stereotypical claims before making them, you TWAT"

Get the Liverpool fc mug.A city with a great nightlife, helped greatly by the fact that the (usually aesthetically pleasing) women enjoying which tend to demonstrate a relatively high level of assertiveness, when it comes to initiating kisses and flirtatious actions. Definitely one of the easiest places in which to pull.
Just a shame about the aggressive, mentally-deficient Scallies who inhabit the place.
