The Ford Foundation has created a fund in partnership with another organization that is dedicated to funding a group affiliated with the Black Lives Matter movement, according to recent reports.

The Ford Foundation is investing in the Black-Led Movement Fund, reports Fortune. The Black-Led Movement Fund was created by the Ford Foundation in partnership with the Borealis Philanthropy, Movement Strategy Center, and Benedict Consulting.

According to its website, the Black-Led Movement Fund seeks to “support philanthropic and field-building activities that strengthen the next generation of social justice leaders.”

The Ford Foundation and Ford are both total Liberal/Leftist/Dem supporting organizations. That is why I will never buy a Ford again.

Exactly. There’s a difference between a company and privileged misdirected heirs in the disposition of the founding proponent’s wealth.

I know I’d certainly spend my money on a Ford product rather than one from ANY GM source any day of the week. Because I know what that COMPANY did to us for Obama.

I was at a meeting and one of the Ford Foundation officers was explaining to me how they helped a country in south America write this great constitution.

I asked what made it so great. He said, “We involved everyone, it wasn’t just written by a bunch of old white guys like ours was.”

Outrageous.

So has the Ford Foundation forged a deal with the current regime for a quid pro quo arrangement?

Why is the Ford Foundation actively supporting BLM's policy of violence and disruption upon America and its racist jihad against white people? Aren't they indeed supporting a revolution against the Cnstitution and ALL American people?

Yeah...I’ve seen the money they put into product improvement (government subsidies, loan deals and outright fabrication of ‘awards’.) Quality work you can depend on (if Uncle Sam be paying for it).

It seems like the richer someone gets, the more liberal they become. I think they don’t want anyone else to approach their level of wealth so they are all in favor of liberal things like higher taxes, funding world wide abortions, etc.

[It seems like the richer someone gets, the more liberal they become.]

That’s because they can afford to live in a dream world sans reality.

Like most Hollywood a**holes.

The whole "move money from a foundation to leftists" motif has, of course, an Alinsky (and Midas Muffler) connection: http://www.nytimes.com/1987/05/16/obituaries/gordon-sherman-of-midas-muffler.html
