The Black Lives Matter Global Network has announced they will be boycotting "white companies" as part of their "Black Xmas".
They shared an Instagram post, with a caption reading: "We’re dreaming of a #Blackxmas. That means no spending with white companies from 11/26/2021 – 01/01/2022."
The Black Lives Matter group also shared a post to their website, saying: “As we prepare ourselves for the holiday season, we are bombarded with ads that seek to whip us up into a consumerist frenzy.
“Black Friday sales are being rolled out weeks in advance of Thanksgiving and, at every turn, white-supremacist-capitalism is telling us to spend our money on things that we don’t need, to reap profits for corporations.”
It continued: "#BlackXmas challenges us to shake off the chains of consumerism and step fully into our own collective power, to build new traditions, and run an offense as well as a defense."
"Black Xmas" was started in 2014 after John Crawford, a black man was involved in a police shooting in Ohio. Crawford was holding a BB gun that was for sale in a Walmart.

Black Lives Matter calls for ‘Black Xmas’ and boycott of ‘white companies’
—
Wait until it snows (white) and every one is dreaming of a white Christmas. Black snow is bad, real bad, worse than yellow snow ...
In other news, in a nod to the “inventory supply chain expediters,” BLM has expanded “Black Friday” to every day of the week.
I am guessing that any public traded companies would be boycotted?
Even if the Board of directors were all minorities. As the company is technically “owned” by the (controlling interest) shareholders?
God I hope they do this.
Hate to be serious but in my neck of the woods the entire shopping experience would be better if the did.
Hoping they will follow through.
The funny thing is most ‘white’ corporations have gone full proBLM pandering and should support this boycott.
Hahahahahahahaha! Good luck with that! They have such an overinflated idea of black achievement. Looks like there won’t be all that much under BLM trees this year. Does that mean they shouldn’t be looting white owned businesses for white-produced merchandise anymore either? No of course not. Such small-minded racist idiots. So sick of this racism.
They already have Kwanzaa.
So they are only going to shoplift from only black owned businesses? Same with smash and grab?
Works for me.
“God I hope they do this.”
A lot of variables. Not sure if they really thought this out.
If there is a 100% Black owned store. And they are selling Non-Black owned manufactured products. Would it be ok to shop at the store? Just not buy any non-black owned manufactured products?
This is more baffling to me than people explaining Kosher laws.. is it scales? No scales? What?
Did they leave any black owned business standing after their riots?
Black XMAS, does that involve looting Nordstroms, Best Buy, CVS, Walgreens, and others..because if it is than I guess xmas came early for them
They can’t fool me, they’re going to spend Christmas shopping dollars in the finest American tradition: ordering cheap Chinese junk from Amazon. Prove me wrong.
I’m down with boycotting blatantly Woke Companies.
Can we start marching and protesting at BLM mansions now?
““Anti-Racism” is dog-whistle for “Kill Whitey””
Well, Deplorables anyway.
Does that include looting whit bidnesses
Does that mean the looting of black-owned stores only?
Actually, as a conservative, I find myself agreeing with this...
You should vote with your pocketbook..
If this happened more often, companies would not be taking political sides..
They would be selling products and focusing on making money
