You keep saying the movement is exclusive, but that doesn't mesh with the pictures and videos from all over the country (and world) of protests filled with people of all colors, and a significant amount of white people are included in those protests.
How is it they're being included and you're not?
Did you watch the video I posted at the start of this conversation?
Have you looked for voices that are actively trying to include you (and me)?
If you're not aware that your opinion is common and has been heard and responded to with positive voices, here's a series of links which were presented below that WheezyWaiter video I posted.
[EDIT] I trimmed down to the one link that I know a little about, so as not to cloud the thread with so many that it discourages the clicking on any of them [/EDIT]
Here's one that speaks to my own bias as a scientist.
Campaign Zero https://www.joincampaignzero.org
Campaign Zero is actively collecting data to better define the problem with concrete facts. It's collecting data on what reforms have been implemented over the past years, and attempts to quantify the efficacy of various reforms to determine which are the most effective ones to invest in.
The exclusion you feel is not representative of the greater movement as a whole. I don't understand why you're letting voices who are clearly delivering a message of (a new implementation of) segregation to obfuscate the greater call for all people to learn the history, learn the facts of the present, and help create a better future.
