As many as 6000 people dressed in black are expected to flood the streets of Melbourne today in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement in the United States. The event will be similar to other Black Lives Matter movement rallies that have been held around the world in the wake of police shootings in America.

Melbourne, like most Australian cities, does not have a huge black population. Nevertheless, Melbourne lefties are today holding a Black Lives Matter protest rally. How are they getting around the small problem of no actual black people? Easy:Yes. Except for the near-total absence of anyone who is, in fact, black. UPDATE. Spot the only black person in this rally photograph. Hint: he died in 1880.
