Black lives matter – to Iranian propagandists.
The third annual “New Horizons” conference being held in Iran this week will focus on “police brutality against blacks in America.” And its organizers have invited American activists to attend.
“We have invited 30 anti-Israel blacks from America to attend,” event organizer Nader Talebzadeh told Iranian news outlet Cinema Press, the Foreign Desk reported Tuesday. “Blacks in America are the only group who utilize their right to protest, and Iran is the perfect place to host them and to initiate a direct relationship with this segment of the American population.”
The three-day conference, which began Monday, aims to create, “a relationship based on culture, diplomacy and revolution,” between Iranian and U.S. activists, Talebzadeh added.
News of the conference came the same day Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke, a long-time critic of Black Lives Matter activists, predicted a future alliance between Islamic extremists and the movement.
“Before long, Black Lies Matter will join forces with ISIS to [bring] down our legal constituted republic. You heard it first here,” Clarke tweeted Tuesday.

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan told an audience over the summer that black Americans must “rise” against white citizens.
“The Quran teaches persecution is worse than slaughter. Then it says, ‘Retaliation is prescribed in matters of the slain.’ Retaliation is a prescription from God, to calm the breast of those whose children have been slain,” Farrakhan said in Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church in Miami, WND reported August 5.
Iran has made no secret of its desire to form an alliance with U.S. activists over the past year.
“In the U.S., whose president is now a black person, the black people are oppressed, disrespected and humiliated, and such behavior has provided the ground for unrest,” Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali said in a speech April 26, Times of Israel reported.
“Was it not colonialists who killed Native Americans & enslaved millions of Africans? Are these American values? #Ferguson #WoundedKnee,” the Iranian leader also tweeted in December, the newspaper reported.

Evidence indicates Iran’s outreach is working.
“I’m not worried about going to Iran. A black man in America is just like a foreigner. They’re killing us. We live in the land of the free and the home of the brave but we’re not worried about terrorists, we’re worried about the police,” Melissa Dargan told the Telegraph Sept. 27 of her desire to attend Iran’s conference.
Dargan’s 23-year-old son, Kawanza Jamal Beaty, was shot and killed during an altercation with police in Newport News, Virginia, on July 4.
Beaty was carrying an unloaded shotgun on the morning he was shot. Three officers responding to a call contend he pointed the gun at them before one officer opened fire. The family then filed a lawsuit for, “wrongful death sustained by reason of malice or negligence.”
