BLM founder Patrisse Cullors paid her baby father $970,000 for ‘creative services

So you only know why blacks fail, ok?

 

what?

 

sorry

 

I see it as a positive sign – Black people have the same right to milk gullible donors are the rest of us:

What I don’t understand why many people insist that Black people should be more honest than the rest of us…

 

You posted charities that keep more money than they donate. But they do donate
And none of those charities have purchased 6 million dollar homes for themselves while paying their family members millions as well.
BLM isn't on record of donating anything.
But it sounds like you think they have a right to defraud the black community based on the fact that other charities don't donate everything.
Thats a pretty poor excuse but if its all ya got, its all ya got

 

An oppressed needy ethnic minority will always be especially tempted to accept bribes, but they are seldom the recipients of the really large windfalls.

“There was bribery of Negro legislators, as Wallace frankly shows, but he also says of his history: "The design of this work is to correct the settled and erroneous impression that has gone out to the world that the former slaves, when enfranchised, had no conception of good government, and therefore their chief ambition was corruption and plunder. . . .

"That it was white men, and not colored men, who originated corruption and enriched themselves from the earnings of the people of the State from the year 1868 to 1877; that the loss of the State to the National Republican Party was not due to any unfaithfulness of the colored people to that party, but to the corruption of these strange white leaders termed 'carpetbaggers'; that the colored people have done as well as any other people could have done under the same circumstances, if not better." 58

Wallace particularly laments the effect of corrupt leaders on the Negro:

"The Northern machine politicians assert that it was the incompetence and unfaithfulness of the Negro voter to the Republican Party that brought about the unhealthy condition of things which made the Solid South—it was these and kindred acts of the carpetbaggers which furnish the key to unlock the door that reveals the secrets of the Solid South, while these very carpetbaggers were sustained by the Northern machine politicians. From the beginning to the end of Stearns* so-called administration it was contaminated with packed juries for political purposes, and during the last two years of his term it became a patent fact that scarcely a person brought before the courts in the Black Belt counties could be convicted from the fact that the petit juries were mostly composed of the very worst element among the freedmen." 59

This is not the whole truth. The reactionary planters, in whom Wallace and other colored men pathetically believed, were not honest or sincere in their advice to and support of Negroes. They encouraged lawlessness among poor whites, extravagance among carpetbaggers and bribery among Negroes. They deliberately befouled the whole political nest in order to discredit its rulers and voters.


‘Shall I sing of Liberty when there is no liberty?
Shall I sing of Freedom when there is none?
Shall I sing love-songs to young lovers who are slaves ?
My soul thrills even as I think the laburnum
In Spring-time thrills to link her chains of gold.
I am lost in the great miracle which Nature Has endlessly wrought out of freedom.
But Man sits amid his own ruins, eating husks.’
Charles Erskine Scott Wood”

When, 'everything old is new again' it is time to make sure that old times are not forgotten.

 

It certainly looks like the BLM leadership was corrupted by big donors.
Nevertheless, I would like to hear their detailed defense if they have one.

 

I don’t care how No Profit Organization enriches its owners and I am not sure what BLM promise to do. If BLM promised to make Blacks situation better – for sure they helped some Black people - Patrisse Cullors baby father, and Shalomyah Bowers and maybe more.

So for me BLM and the charities mentioned in this article belong to the same club.

 

We know

 

Nobody has ever produced a single black organization that has benefited from BLM since their inception.
But the left doesn't care. Never has.

 

Much of what passes for the "Left" in the US is complicit in the systemic institutional racism that continues to oppress the black American community.

BLM has apparently received over $90M, so it appears to have stiffed its own chapters.

“Chapters call for more transparency

A group of 10 chapters, called the #BLM10, rejected the foundation’s funding offer last year and complained publicly about the lack of donor transparency. Foundation leaders say only a few of the 10 chapters are recognized as network affiliates.

In a letter released Nov. 30, the #BLM10 claimed most chapters have received little to no financial resources from the BLM movement since its launch in 2013. That has had adverse consequences for the scope of their organizing work, local chapter leaders told the AP.

The chapters are simply asking for an equal say in “this thing that our names are attached to, that they are doing in our names,” said Black Lives Matter DC organizer April Goggans, who is part of the #BLM10 along with groups in Indianapolis, Oklahoma City, San Diego, Hudson Valley, New York, and elsewhere.

“We are BLM. We built this, each one of us,” she said.

Feb. 16, 2021

Records show some chapters have received multiple rounds of funding in amounts ranging between $800 and $69,000, going back as far as 2016. The #BLM10 said the amounts given have been far from equitable when compared with how much BLM has raised over the years.”

“A financial snapshot shared exclusively with the Associated Press shows the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation took in just over $90 million last year.”

But for BLM there would be no protests over conditions in our urban hell holes.
BLM does matter. Time for an audit.

 

If records show it, then it should be able to produce them.
Yet nobody has EVER produced such.
So you could be the first.
Can you produce these public records?

 

This source cites the "records", and if they exist they show that BLM has given very little "multiple rounds of funding in amounts ranging between $800 and $69,000, of the $90,000,000 raised even to its own chapters.

I did a quick search for charitable donations from BLM, and could not find evidence of any.
That does not mean that there are none, but I doubt that any large donations would have occurred without extensive publicity.
