BLM is the latest iteration of a black nationalist movement aligned with a Bolshevik/Marxist insurrection. They like to compare this to the formative war for independence of the US from England, and yet they have no constitution or foundational set of beliefs or virtues in a positive sense.

They have no treatise on what their ideal system of governance should resemble. They have no value structure or framework either from an abstract philosophical moral sense nor from a concrete pragmatic sense. There is no historical precedent that they can point to to make the case that their thinking or method of governance will have the effect that they desire, presumably social equality, nor can they point to any time in history where anything resembling such an environment has ever existed.

On the other hand we can find volumes of cases in historical record and even in present day, where Marxist inspired systems have failed. Even more to the point, we can find a plethora of examples where black run cities, states, and for that matter countries and continents are abyssal failures at every level.
