Part of the Democrats 2020 strategy could be seizing on "white guilt" in these suburbs and towns. "You have got to make them feel like hey you are part of this as well. Black Lives Matter is not just a black issue," @TharonJohnson said: https://t.co/bTcTV0bN81 — PolitiTweet.org

BLM protests happened in 10 of WISCONSIN's biggest municipalities. The spontaneous turnout "in rural Wisconsin punctures the false choice between racial justice and economic issues," state Democratic party chair @benwikler told me. https://t.co/bTcTV0bN81 — PolitiTweet.org

This is significant for the political impact: "I see more white people in Atlanta marching to the governor's mansion than I see black people...I see more parents I know in suburban areas marching with their children," Georgia Democratic strategist @TharonJohnson told me: — PolitiTweet.org

"I never even heard of a protest in a small white city," Keon Singleton told us, of Ashland OH where he is a student. "It starts in these small white communities...it's really good people, they just don't know what's going on in the black community." https://t.co/bTcTV0bN81 — PolitiTweet.org

In Ashland OH, Keon Singleton started protesting alone, jogging with a BLM sign around a main street. After someone streamed it on Facebook, his lone jog became an 80-person march. He has kept the demonstrations going daily. https://t.co/bTcTV0bN81 — PolitiTweet.org

City officials told us they're struck by the way the demonstrations have taken root on their own, organically. We spoke with organizers who had never organized before. Hayley Mason in Huntingdon, PA thought maybe 10 people would come to a vigil. 250 came: https://t.co/bTcTV0bN81 — PolitiTweet.org

Public officials--who also use Twitter as a key form of communication themselves-- act as if "the tweets" are some kind of alien tech. That is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org
