It looks like there will be no love lost between Donald Trump and the founders of the Black Lives Matter movement.
In a recent interview with NPR, co-founder Patrisse Cullors said there would be absolutely no negotiating with Donald Trump or anyone in his administration.
“We’re not going to be taking meetings with Donald Trump,” Patrisse Cullors said. “We’re not going to be sitting with his Attorney General. What we will be doing is protesting. What we will be doing is calling for an end to white nationalism and fascism.”
The Black Lives Matter movement has grown into a nation-wide network with more than 40 chapters inside the United States and around the world.
In a statement issued shortly after Donald Trump’s election, the group said they were working on an elaborate strategy to “eradicate both white supremacy and implicit bias towards it.”
“We must reckon with the anti-blackness of America’s history that led to this political moment,” the group told Mic.com in a statement.
The activists are also concerned about Trump’s appointment of Alabama senator Jeff Sessions as the Attorney General of the United States.
Either way, Black Lives Matter is preparing for more protests centering around the injustices happening to African-American men around the United States.
Don’t worry, Patrice: Nobody’s asking to meet with you. As a matter of fact, nobody in the Trump administration gives a rat’s *ss about you or what you want. Here’s a quarter: Call 1-800-HILLARY.
Have them declared a domestic terrorist entity.
That’s fine. The U.S. shouldn’t negotiate with terrorist groups.
I agree, there should be no negotiations at all.
I predict Patrisse Cullors will be sporting an orange wardrobe shortly...
You want to protest? That’s fine. If you’re peaceful about it, it is your right.
If you get violent, seditious, or treasonous, you’re going to prison for a long time. Trump don’t play like that.
I don’t make distinctions between Marxists and useful idiots anymore. They’re the same kind of stupid.
Were these slugs even ASKED for a meeting with Trump? Methinks they might be just a tad too sure of their importance where Trump is concerned. They’re a domestic terrorist group in the minds of many like myself and need to be thrown UNDER the jail.
The LAST thing many of the BLM supporters want is a job.
“What we will be doing is protesting.”
“Yeah. That’ll work. :-D”
Actually, there won’t any REAL work involved. That’s what makes it so appealing to the loafer class.
Well this makes it more easy then. Dont have to sit around listening to their feigned attempts to pull off what they think passes for diplomacy.
That was obvious by what I said....
BLM has nothing to do with black lives, but all to do with OBama agenda on gun control, police federalization under his thumb and Global Warming.
Obama in one of his rants to black people said that BLM because we believe in science and Global warming...
co-founder Patrisse Cullors said there would be absolutely no negotiating with Donald Trump or anyone in his administration.
GREAT, No Plea Bargaining means Longer Sentences.
Yep.
What a bunch of pathetic, self-important nobodies.
I highly doubt there is anyone in the Trump administration aware that they were expected to negotiate with the likes of Black Lives Matter.
...enemies, both foreign and domestic. etc.
BLM is a hate group.
I wait with anticipation the policing beginning January 20th, 2017.
I doubt there will be much change from how it is now: Unarmed Grandfather 73, shot 9 times by cops
