Here’s a couple links that you can look at.

This is why I hate American politics. People do zero actual research and jump on whatever their party says. It's a disgusting system that leads to worse democracy.

If people actually could think for themselves in America, then maybe the last few decades would've seen better presidents with policies that actually work to improve America as opposed to "well we're doing something that the other party isn't."

The point of Black Lives Matter is to stop the unnecessary amount of police brutality against blacks, not to say that their lives are the only ones that matter. Clearly you mind has been twisted by the MSM to believe that BLM is a terrorist organization when realistically, they're just a bunch of protesters.

And before you say "well whadda boutta riots," you do know that the vast majority of BLM is peaceful. Only a vocal minority are the ones going out and looting stores.

Actually, the protests are apparently a great example of police brutality itself, as the government is now targeting BLM because a few people were extreme. That happens to every group, and it's laughable to say that BLM is the only one doing this if it's true.

In addition, it seems at the moment that the police have been their own undoing, as the militarized (and excessive) response to the BLM protests only enflamed tensions and may (partially) be to blame for the riots in the first place.

“All Lives Matter” is racist depending on the context. Say, you are saying it at a time like now where the focus is on POC, that’s just being straight out insensitive.

However, the two sources I'd say are reliable and unbiased are Wikipedia (they mention praise and criticism of the organization), and Pew Research Center (since they've only released statistics).

Both sources have their pros and cons, but I'd say if you roughly wanted some reliable or at least neutral sources, then I'd recommend those two.

Of course, at the end of the day, you should do your own research. Don't listen to liberal and conservative outlets and instead try to find neutral and factual sources (like scholarly articles).
