Black Lives Matter Grassroots Inc., a collective of racial justice activists from around the U.S., paid tribute to Shakur on Friday.

“May her courage, wisdom, and deep, abiding love permeate through every dimension and guide us,” the group said in a statement posted to Instagram. “May our work be righteous and brave as we fight in her honor and memory.”


BLM honors the murderer of a police officer. Go figure

There was a reward for her of $1 million dollars. After she is buried, if somebody digs her up and brings her back to the US do they get the $1 million? Asking for a friend.

Figures - WikiCommiePedia and Associated Pravda both use her Commie name, instead of her American dead name.

The family should dig her up and anoint her with a bag of used burritos and a used 12-pack of beer.

Chesimard shot Trooper Werner Foerster in the head while he lay on the road, having been wounded. She was taken in by her cohort, Fidel Castro whom many leftists like prominent Hollywood types have kissed the tail of for decades.

Three recent dead radicals:

Assata Olugbala Shakur
JoAnne Deborah Byron
Joanne Chesimard

Of course, that’s really just one person. She used three names. At least.

BLM came out of this same communist movement.

Don’t forget the current “mayor” of Los Angeles. Mizz Bass.

This Communist has been an active participant and member of the Venceremos Brigade— visiting Cuba several times. The first time in 1973.

Her statement she released when Castro died in November 2016 referred to him as “Comandante en Jefe,” a phrase Castro’s government used to praise him. Incompetent and greedy mayor of LA ripping off Palisades Fire victims and especially their property for “rebuild” of “affordable housing” and of course speculative building for the Summer Olympics. Commies are really into theft of property for themselves (fake in the service of a obtuse “people”).
