Black Lives Matter Activist Snubs White House Invite

I was under the impression that a meeting was being organized to facilitate a genuine exchange on the matters facing millions of Black and Brown people in the United States. Instead, what was arranged was basically a photo opportunity and a 90-second sound bite for the president. I could not, with any integrity, participate in such a sham that would only serve to legitimize the false narrative that the government is working to end police brutality and the institutional racism that fuels it. For the increasing number of families fighting for justice and dignity for their kin slain by police, I refuse to give its perpetrators and enablers political cover by making an appearance among them.

Well, I gotta at least give here kudos for seeing the falsehood the admin is pulling. Now if she'd wake up and face the truth about the 'hole' line of blm crap, that would be nice. But I ain't counting on that anytime soon.

Nope, BLM is the latest transfiguration of the Jackson, Sharpton, and Rangel race baiting and blackmail enterprise.

Can’t get a whiter name than “Aislinn”; it’s an Irish name, just like “Shaun King”.

(Pulley) concluded by writing that the federal government cannot be counted on to bring about the change she's calling for in America. "We assert that true revolutionary and systemic change will ultimately only be brought forth by ordinary working people, students and youth -- organizing, marching and taking power from the corrupt elites."
Another Marxist whose basis for everything is hatred.

What a long winded way for her to say that Obama is not racist enough for her.

Gotta be racism against him. Anything to stimulate the hate that revolutionary socialism insists on.

Tell the half black bastard child to take a hike. He has gotten all the publicity he needs. Time for him to prepare for his ultimate departure to some rest home for the insane.

Sounds like a girl who actually. truly cares about issues (as opposed to most of the Blacks Looting More group) and is rightly upset at what she thought was a genuine opportunity for dialog being nothing but a photo-op for a self-serving dumbarse. She is right to refuse the invite.
