White Lives Matter

White Lives Matter (WLM) is a phrase that began in 2015 in a response to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) social justice movement. It seeks to address racism against white people. The Aryan Renaissance Society, a white supremacist organization, was one group that initially promoted the phrase "White Lives Matter". Within a year, the term was used by the Ku Klux Klan. In August 2016, the Southern Poverty Law Center added White Lives Matter to its list of hate groups and considers it a Neo Nazi group.
