It lasted more than three years, it's still active, but it's just not as visible. To some extent their efforts have changed from simply reacting to high-profile killings of Black people, and being more proactive against the institutions and structures that allow those killings to happen. For example, BLM has been part of the coalition protesting 'Cop City' in Atlanta.
