African archbishop 'salutes' BLM's battle against racism
ROME (ChurchMilitant.com) - Vatican News is praising Black Lives Matter (BLM) as a "movement dedicated to non-violent civil disobedience through protests against police violence directed at black persons as well as all forms of racism."
"The movement began in 2013 with the use of the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter on social media," the Holy See's official information service said Wednesday, providing context for comments from president of the National Episcopal Conference of Congo (CENCO) Abp. Marcel Utembi Tapa, who said he "welcomed the fight against racism being spearheaded by the Black Lives Matter movement."
"Today, Black Lives Matter has decentralized into a broader and worldwide network of movements advocating against police violence towards minorities, the militarization of the police as well as against systemic racism around the world," Vatican News reported.
The Vatican media made no reference to BLM's involvement in riots, it's campaign to "defund the police" or to the movement's goals of "disrupt(ing) the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement," as explicitly stated on the "What we believe" page of the BLM website.

Peaceful? Non violent?
Setting fire to vehicles..to businesses..smashing windows, shops..looting..taking arm full of merchandise through broken window fronts.. hitting attacking police...
What part did the Vatican miss.
You know who decided to “disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement?” Slave traders, almost all of whom voted Democrat. Black America never fully recovered, but when they finally asserted their God-give freedom, the Democrats assailed their families. And tragically, black America lost big. Some Republicans still recognize the necessity of the structure of the loving family to the development of children and especially its essential role in the formation of young men. Well-formed young men honor their fathers, without whose love they seek affirmation in criminal gangs that lure them to destroy their own communities, inculcate them in anti-black racism, and kill their own compatriots.
So vote Trump and save the lives of your compatriots from these Democrat-supported gangs.
I dont give blm any respect... what i think of them now cant be on paper. They think tbus is how to get what they wznt,?
It may work for a week, but when the shock wears off, they will be more ill thought of. You cant force respect..you EARN it.
A serious question:
Can any Catholic here point me to a section of the CCC that deals with rejecting the counsel of an errant/heretic Pope?
They forgot the modifier “mostly.”
The pope’s position is consistent with that of someone who embraces Liberation Theology.
I am with you! I always say that the Lord kept Benedict there for a reason. He is my pope.
OMG. This pope is as senile as Joe Biden!
If the vatican held a dinner party, communists leaders and socialist leaders and globalist leaders and climate change activists would be invited. Jesus would not be welcome.
more likely this marxist pope is behind this crappola.
