Black Lives Matter Leaders Allegedly Living Lavish Life Off Donations!
The Black Lives Matter Organization was created in 2013 in an effort to highlight the unfair treatment of black people across all the world, especially as it relates to police.
It’s been almost a decade since its launch and the impact of those three words has helped millions. Unfortunately, the organization that adopted the Black Lives Matter social movement as it’s official name now sits at the forefront of a scandal.
See, people love to say they donated to a cause or be a part of something huge, but when you donated your money to things like FEMA, The Red Cross, Black Lives Matter or the newest effort Ukraine, only a portion of your money actually goes to helping those in need.
Did you know that only 10% of your donations actually go to the movement, or aid to help others. See its quite frustrating when people believe that organizations are actually helping other when in actuality they are profiting off others for self gain. Basically 85 – 90% of all profits fund the companies who say they are helping. They pay themselves, the employees, shipping costs, rescue vehicles and so on. Not to mention protests, events, fundraiser and more.
This leads us to the ugly truth…
CelebnMusic247.com reports that three leaders of the Black Lives Matter operation– Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza and Melina Abdullah– have been accused of using donations from supporters to purchase a $6 million home in Southern California back in October of 2020.
In a now deleted video that marked the death of George Floyd, the three women sat at a table with the house in the background. As they discussed the fatality of Floyd, they failed to recognize where they were.
According to New York Magazine, the beautiful and elaborate 6,500 square foot home consists of six bedrooms, numerous fireplaces, a soundstage, a pool, a bungalow, and is capable of parking 20 vehicles.
Ironically, the trio discussed how the media has been calling their use of the funds into question.
Cullors said:
For me, the hardest moments have been the right-wing-media machine just leveraging literally all its weight against me, against our movement, against the organization. I’m some weeks out now from a lot of the noise, so I have more perspective, right? While I was in it, I was in survival mode.
According to a report by Intelligencer, a little digging revealed that the property was purchased for nearly $6 million in cash in October 2020 with money that had been donated to BLMGNF.
A transaction that was NOT previously reported. After being questioned, the organization claimed the house will be referred to as “campus” and is an influencer house where artists will collaborate and produce abolition based content. They also described it as a safe house for leaders.
This is really messed up!
