BLM Leaders Secretly Buy House for Six Million Bucks

Who didn’t see this one coming (okay, one guy sitting way in the back, but everyone else did)?

True believers, right? At least, one thing we thought we knew about BLM radical Marxists was they were sincere in their beliefs and dedicated to cultural and political revolution and transformation. But it looks like the only revolution that took place with some BLM leaders was a transformation from poor to rich.

With all the money that poured in from individual and corporate donors, Intelligencer is pointing out “Allies and critics alike have questioned where the organization’s money has gone.”

In the Intelligencer article, three prominent leaders of BLM whine about the “right-wing media machine…leveraging…” their weight against BLM. Ironically, these leftists who’ve benefitted from a complicit mainstream media and big tech to cancel others accuse the right of attempting “to cancel us….”

Since BLM is adept at the cancellation they decry, it’s interesting they’d use it to describe people who question their Marxist agenda. It’s called criticism, ladies (not a biologist here, but there’s my layman’s observation).

The trouble they’re having is that the criticism seems valid. There was Patrice Cullors’ purchase of, according to FOX News, four homes for $3.2 million. Soon after it became public, “Cullors resigned as executive director of Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation….”

According to the Intelligencer article, these purchases brought up, well, inequities, “a disturbing gap between the movement’s most visible figures and on-the-ground activists across the country….”

The Post Millennial also covered the controversy, writing about one point during an interview when Alicia Garza calls out critics. “Y’all don’t know sh*t about what it takes to live in a box here.”

Reportedly, the “box” (not one of the other four mentioned earlier) is “over 6,500 square feet, more than half a dozen bedrooms and bathrooms, multiple fireplaces, a soundstage, a pool and bungalow, and parking for 20-plus vehicles, according to real-estate listings.”

BLM bought the property in October 2020 for about $6 million. “Intelligencer says that the transaction has not yet been reported and that Black Lives Matter’s leadership had hoped to keep the house’s existence a secret.”
