	1	+The BLM movement is gaining more credibility right now – polls prove. However, the “alt-right” movement is also starting to gain credibility – passing small scale reform would kill BLM and help Trump and white supremacists.

"Poll: How Millennials view BLM and the alt-right," USA TODAY, http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/10/31/poll-millennials-black-lives-matter-alt-right/92999936///roman
	3	+Most Millennials have a positive view of the Black Lives Matter movement, a USA TODAY/Rock the Vote Millennial Poll finds, but attitudes are more mixed about the less well-known alt-right. In the survey of Americans 18 to 34 years old, 58 say they have a favorable opinion about Black Lives Matter, an activist movement that grew from protests over the shooting deaths of unarmed African Americans. Among blacks, an overwhelming 81 have a favorable view, including 50 who are "very favorable." Just 14 of blacks have an unfavorable opinion. Whites have a positive impression of the movement by 53-39, Hispanics by 64-31, and Asian Americans by 54-40. "Black lives matter, especially with everything that's going on in the news and police brutality," Daniel Palomar, 21, of Chino Hill, Calif., said in a follow-up phone interview. "Even though I do support police, too, I do support Black Lives Matter." David Clausi, 32, of Huntington Beach, Calif. disagrees. "I believe all lives matter, so I don't really support that group of what they stand for, because everybody matters in this country and not only one race." The online poll of 1,299 young adults, including an over-sample of minorities, was taken Oct. 21-24 by Ipsos Public Affairs. The survey has a credibility interval, akin to a margin of error, of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points. The alt-right movement, which includes groups on the far right, has gained attention recently because of the support for Donald Trump by some white supremacists and anti-Semites. But it is much less well-known among Millennials. Nearly half of those surveyed, 45, say they don't know enough about the alt-right to have an opinion of it, compared with just 8 who say that of Black Lives Matter. Among those who express an opinion, 34 say they have a favorable opinion of the alt-right, 21 an unfavorable one. Among whites, the favorable-unfavorable divide is 33-19. Among African Americans, it is 31-27. Among Hispanics, 46-23. Among Asian Americans, 37-23. "I don't see much about the alt-right but what I have seen is positive," says Samuel Watkins, 19, of Lima, Ohio. "I feel like they're getting a good message across." "I think they're a little radical," says Anatasia Van Ryck Degroot, 21, a student from Hoboken, N.J. She called the movement "out of touch with society right now with their super-conservative values."

	5	+McDonnell 97 Brett McDonnell, Law clerk – US Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, 1997 (“Dynamic Statutory Interpretations and Sluggish Social Movements,” 85 Calif. L. Rev. 919)//roman
	6	+Parts V and VI summed up this analysis in a simple model and applied it to the events surrounding the Civil Rights Act of 1991 and the current situation. Even when the Court is more receptive to civil rights groups than Congress, activists may face a tradeoff between short-term gains from using the Court and a longer-run weakening of the movement if they thereby fail to keep up political pressure at the grassroots level. When, as now, the Court is more hostile to civil rights than Congress, not only do activists in court risk a short-term loss, but that loss will be compounded as the Court helps shape public opinion in a more conservative direction. I have focused on racial politics, but the argument can be generalized to other contexts. It might well apply to other movements focused on civil rights~-~-feminist groups and lesbian, gay, and bisexual groups, for instance. It might also be interesting to apply the method of analysis developed in this Comment to the environmental movement. My framework would seem to apply less well to areas of the law that do not involve potential collective action by large-scale social movements. Finally, even in the racial context, I have avoided major relevant questions. Throughout this Comment, I have assumed that the ultimate goal is to achieve desirable statements of the law. Presumably, though, *954 the ultimate goal is to achieve racial justice, which will involve improving the political, social, and economic position of blacks and other racial minorities. Good laws may not meet that end for at least two reasons. First, laws must be implemented. One critique of court-based strategies has been that even if courts come through with sympathetic decisions, courts are not good at implementing general social policy on their own. n156 Second, for some problems, better laws, or even better government policy generally, may not be the answer, or at least not the whole answer. To the extent that these points are true, they will affect the strategies discussed in this Comment. Civil rights organizers will notice that gains in court may not translate into substantial social gains. So long as activism thereafter continues to focus on courts, supporters will lose interest, and political pressure for change will decline. Persons who care about civil rights in the U.S. must thus ask what has gone wrong politically, socially, and economically since the highs of the sixties. Activists must constantly ask what kind of individual and collective action is best suited to reaching the goal of a racially egalitarian society.

	8	+Chan 2016 Melissa Chan (simplified Chinese: 陈嘉韵; traditional Chinese: 陳嘉韻; pinyin: Chén Jiāyùn; Cantonese Yale: Chàn Gāwahn, June 2, 1980)1 is an American broadcast journalist, who is currently a freelancer. "Black Lives Matter Releases First List of Demands," TIME. August 1st, 2016. Accessed: 11/4/16. http://time.com/4433679/black-lives-matter-platform-demands///roman
	9	+More than 60 groups that are part of the Black Lives Matter Movement teamed up to release the agenda, which included six demands related to police and criminal justice reform as well as 40 recommendations on how to address them, the Associated Pressreports. “We seek radical transformation, not reactionary reform,” Michaela Brown, a spokeswoman for Baltimore Bloc, one of the group’s partner organizations, said in a statement to TIME. “As the 2016 election continues, this platform provides us with a way to intervene with an agenda that resists state and corporate power, an opportunity to implement policies that truly value the safety and humanity of black lives, and an overall means to hold elected leaders accountable.” In one demand, the coalition calls for “community control,” in which they say residents in neighborhoods “most harmed by destructive policing” should have the power to hire and fire police officers and dole out discipline in cases of misconduct related to excessive and deadly force. In another, the groups demand “an end to the criminalization, incarceration, and killing of our people,” which includes abolishing capital punishment and eliminating the use of past criminal histories to determine eligibility for jobs and other services. “Until we achieve a world where cages are no longer used against our people, we demand an immediate change in conditions and an end to public jails, detention centers, youth facilities and prisons as we know them,” the agenda says. The groups also demand protection and increased funding for black institutions like historically black colleges and “social formations.” The lengthy policy comes almost two years after white former police officer Darren Wilson shot and killed unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. The fatal shooting sparked weeks of sometimes violent protests and debates about the nature of the relationship between police and black people.
