This is merely my experience, but I have never seen or participated in a BLM march in response to a police killing. However, between Memorial Day and a few weeks past Labour Day,  my Church has a march every Friday at 7:00 pm, through our South Side parish. The rout is set in consultation with the police, generally, who let our priest know which blocks have been most tense and problematic. We chant any number of things, and "Black lives matter," is one of the prominent refrains. Also, "Put the guns down," "Save the babies," "We love you, your are brothers, we love you, your our sons," and various other such things. Towards the end of this Summer, we went to the house of a neighborhood gang leader, to call him out, and offer support for him to change. We stopped at the local precinct house, to applaud, bless, and pray over the officers last month. And there have been larger marches in the city, last Good Friday, for instance, and a few others since then.
