BLM will not block TC marathon after all

I wonder what was said in the meeting to make them change their minds.

I just saw this linked on FB and was going to link it here.

Why can't people keep drivel like this to themselves? 

At his news conference, Dayton criticized the group’s tactics and evoked his own activism as a Vietnam War protester.

“Black lives matter,” Dayton said. “I believe strongly that black lives matter. I believe my career’s demonstrated the commitment to the principle that black lives matter. I acknowledge that there’s discrimination. I acknowledge there’s injustice, that there’s inequality. But if that’s the basis for taking disruptive actions, somebody can take disruptive action every day and every night for the foreseeable future.”

I really hope that an acceptable offer was extended to make #BLM change their minds. Instead of a threat. Good news for the runners though:)

I'm glad to hear that. It would be wonderful if some of the runners do something in solidarity with the movement.
