Seattle BLM protesters demand white people ‘give up’ their homes
NY Post ^ | 8/14/2020 | Joshua Rhett Miller

A group of Black Lives Matter protesters in Seattle marched through a residential neighborhood this week demanding that white residents give up their homes, dramatic video shows.

Footage of the Wednesday demonstration posted to Twitter shows a crowd of dozens chanting “Black lives matter” before an unidentified man projects his ire toward nearby white residents — saying they are living in a historically black section of the city as another woman in the crowd yells that they should “give up” their homes, the clip shows.

“Do you know that before your white ass came here, this was all black people?” the man says. “Do you know people like you came in here and basically bought all the land from the black people for less than what it was worth, kicked them out so you could live here? Do you know that?”

The man continues: “’Cause if you don’t, now you f–king do — now do something about it!”

Another woman in the crowd then urges the residents to “open their wallet” as the man continues to yell at the unidentified residents off-camera.

“So how do you plan to fix it?” the man continues. “As a gentrifier, because you are part of that problem.”

A woman with a megaphone then urges the residents to “give up” their house, the footage shows.

“Give black people back their homes!” she yells. “You’re sitting there comfortably — comfortable as f—k as if they didn’t help gentrify this neighborhood! I used to live in this neighborhood, and my family was pushed out, and you’re sitting up there having a good time with your other white friends!”

“Sleepless in Seattle” taking on a somewhat different tone, eh?

Enjoy your “wokeness”, Seattle libtards.

I sort of agree with BLM on this one. Every white liberal who owns a home should give it to a black person. Or STFU forever and vote for Trump in Nov.

I’m right there with ya. Every white-guilt liberal, especially the wealthy ones, that encourage and support this utter BS should just hand em the keys and head to a convenient overpass to spend the night...forever.
Here? Different story: “COME AND TAKE IT”.

Pushed out? Either they sold their house, got evicted for failure to pay or lost their lease.

Oh, I’m sure there are more than a few spineless white liberals that live in Seattle, in which their White Guilt is too much to handle and will be gladly handing over their house keys to these idiots. They’ll probably keep paying the mortgage and insurance for them too...

I would love to know how many of those lovely dwellings had “Black Lives Matter” or those pompous “Hate Has No Home Here” signs in front of them?

The truth is that blacks likely never owned the houses. Most likely the blacks that lived in them only rented them after they hd become rundown.

If the Post is covering it, far more liberals will believe this actually happened.

Neighborhoods that have people actually taking care of their houses do not require anyone to come in and gentrify them.
