By calling for activists to take action against Israel, \u2062BLM is veering into the territory of anti-Semitism, which should be\u200b concerning for any organization that claims to stand against discrimination.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore,\u200b the\u200d ad highlights BLM&#8217;s divisive rhetoric and actions, which have led to violence and property destruction in various \u200bcities across the United States.
