Black Lives Matter Co-Founder Claims Asking About Allegations She Spent Millions In Donations On Mansions Is Racist

It sure does pay to sow racial division in this country. Just ask Black Lives Matter (BLM) co-founder Patrisse Cullors, but don’t criticize her alleged financial mismanagement and questionable spending decisions while you’re at it.
At an event in Washington state last week, as part of a week-long residency with the Vashon Center for the Arts, Cullors made clear that if you criticize her or the movement, you’re a racist standing in the way of black women organizers. The comments were captured on an exclusive video posted below.
“We didn’t figure out how to protect ourselves. And what’s true often, especially for black women is we don’t protect ourselves first,” Cullors complained in what she described as “straight-up attacks” in the controversy over BLM finances.
The comments came days after a bombshell report that Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation donations were used to purchase a 6,500-square-foot, nearly $6 million mansion in southern California.
According to New York Magazine, the home was secretly acquired by a shell company in October 2020 when Cullors served as executive director for BLM. It makes sense why they’d want to keep it secret: Marxists are not supposed to be swimming in dough, and contributions were supposed to go to helping the BLM cause.
This type of purchase wasn’t new for Cullors: she started spending a fortune back in 2016, three years after she co-founded BLM. As her movement’s evangelists claimed police were murdering innocent black people, she was on a real estate shopping spree, buying up four opulent digs for a reported total of $3.2 million.
