We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight in the streets, we shall fight at the brunch table. In case you hadn’t heard, yesterday NAPARP (the National Amalgamation of Protesters Against Racist Police) took its act indoors, to restaurants in New York City and Oakland to disrupt … brunch?
I kid you not. The demonstration was organized on Twitter under the hashtag (corned beef hashtag?) #BlackBrunchNYC. Their message was not only that black lives matter but that white lives don’t:
ATTN WHITE Man, I have no guilt disturbing your brunch. Its YOU that has no right to be here. #blackbrunchnyc pic.twitter.com/mFRq5Q9hbe

Needless to say, some tweeters had a field day:
Eggs Benedict? More like eggs Benedict Arnold, amirite #blackbrunchnyc?

The protesters wouldn’t be mad about brunch if the restaurants just took EBT. #blackbrunchnyc

Some of the tweets were tinged with irony:
Weird how there was no #blackbrunchnyc protests in Chicago today http://t.co/fLpTw3BdR5 Guess not all #BlackLivesMatter to them, only some.

The presumption that racism was a factor in the deaths of Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and other black males whose names have become NAPARP rallying cries has never been borne out by evidence. The whole protest movement has been based on a fiction from the start. How surprising should it be that it has now become a parody of itself?
