Black Lives Matter Painting on the Streets of Washington DC
In your book you write about how politicians and corporations co-opted Black Lives Matter as a classic example of elite captures. One of the examples I use in the book was the painting of Black Lives Matter on the actual physical streets of Washington DC. The mayor of DC has had Black Lives Matter painted on the streets in front of the White House where this has happened it's sort of challenged to the Trump administration but then goes on to approve a larger budget for the police which the movement had been kind of centrally organized around fighting.
