Transition From the BLMGN: #BLM10

The BLM10Plus is made up of former Black Lives Matter Global Network chapters and organizers who left the Network after years of unsuccessful efforts to address concerns about transparency, accountability, democratic decision-making, political alignment, and the control and distribution of resources. After exhausting internal efforts to transform the Network, we took our concerns directly to our communities and the broader Black liberation movement.

Read the statements below that document why we left and our calls for accountability:

It Is Time for Accountability - November 30, 2020
Our first public statement announcing our break with the direction of BLMGN and calling for transparency, financial accountability, democracy, and collective decision-making.

Tell No - June 10, 2021
Our expanded statement documenting the years of organizing and internal accountability efforts that preceded our departure, why chapters ultimately left the Network, and our broader concerns about structure, resources, political alignment, and accountability within the movement.
