Okay then

I'm not sure how pointing out that the BLM movement is not made up of black people (BLM Philly aside) is smearing the movement.

In any case, the thread is larger than BLM. The Evergreen College incident didn't include BLM, just a race question amped up to 11. The students at Bryn Mawr turned on their feminist founder on creed, not race. The larger issue is about identity politics and its divisiveness, and its rejection of the liberal notion of the open consideration of ideas. And without bias I can consider it really interesting -- and annoying, really -- that this particular group decided to include "Liberalism is white supremacy" as one of their chants.
