Re: Swedish situation
When you see "Black Lives Matter" think of it as a reminder that "Black Lives Also Matter". and not as "Only Black Lives Matter".
At least, I'd hope that's what they mean, although I do sometimes wonder if some people who use the phrase do so very deliberately because they know that it winds-up some non-Black people who feel (perhaps not always entirely unreasonably) that they are being excluded from those whose lives matter (far from every white person gets a fair deal out of life either, although I fully acknowledge that most white people don't have to deal with racism against them on top of everything else).
It does none of us any good to inadvertently or deliberately convey that (any) other people's lives don't matter (all of us are human, first of all), but it is for BLM (BLAM?) organisers to decide what slogan/name they want to use to get their message across.
