2. Why not change "Black " to "White" in "Black Lives Matter" ?

That would be ridiculous because the movement exists due to the historical systemic discrimination Black people have faced at the hands of White people over the years.

Similarly, the entire reason why a Jewish state came to be was due to the historical systemic discrimination Jewish people have faced at the hands of Christian people (and others) over the years.
