Black Lives Matter Day is July 13. BLM was founded in 2013 after the death of Trayvon Martin but did not become a national force until 2020. Today it is nothing but a shell of an organization. It not only ripped off corporate donors, its legacy is one of blood.
In July 2020, Patrisse Cullors became BLM’s executive director. Less than a year later she resigned after it was reported that she “used her position as the charity’s leader to funnel business to an art company led by the father of her only child.” Before she left in May 2021, she announced that BLM had raised over $90 million. CharityWatch subsequently said BLM is “a giant ghost ship full of treasure drifting in the night with no captain, no discernible crew, and no clear direction.”
It was such a mess that ten states had to close its chapters once it was revealed that BLM was not in compliance with state registration laws. In September 2022, one of its board members, Shalomyah Bowers, and his consulting firm, was accused of stealing more than $10 million in donations from the BLM Global Foundation, using it as its own “piggy bank.”
Bad as this is, nothing is worse than the violence that BLM protesters engaged in, and the way it exploited black-police encounters. It planted the seed in the minds of millions of Americans that the cops are the enemy of black people, thus aggravating racial relations.
The late David Horowitz closely tracked the damage that BLM had done. “All the outrage against police racism, and all the mayhem fueled by that outrage, was based on no evidence whatsoever. It was based on a lie.” He concluded that the lie “inspired over 600 attacks on 220 American cities.”

BLM is nothing but a terrorist organization on the same level of wickedness as antifa and the KKK.
The date of the Butler attempt on Trump?
I didn’t realize we started have a “Day” for domestic terrorists, Walmart arsonists and looters.
BLM was always blatantly Communist and a globo-homo religionist organization.
But it’s OK when they do it.
