“One of the groups, Reform LA Jails, in 2019 collected more than $1.4 million, of which $205,000 went to a consulting company owned by Cullors and her spouse Janaya Khan, New York magazine said.” nypost.com/2022/01/31/blm…
We built #ADOS organically on small donations and sacrifice. And got a Harvard research paper that smeared us. What this is saying about BLM if true is an awful undermining of Black politics by this group & it’s leaders. And it created a vacuum sucking the air from Black politics
Almost a year ago I told y’all that a odd titled book and a small credit in Hollywood doesn’t pay for a multi million dollar home. “BLM & Patrisse Cullors Explained - Looking Closer at the Marc Lamont Hill BNC Interview”
Let us not forget while being propped up by white donors founding member Garza then used that position to attack #ados. She did it while speaking at the same Harvard school that would author a factually inaccurate smear paper months later.

The news comes after the organization has already faced scrutiny over finances in the past.

(1) If all of these accusations hold true and these funds were misappropriated you can make the argument BLM is among the greatest failures in the history of BLACK politics.
(2) BECAUSE WHILE #ADOS TRIED TO DEMAND REPARATIVE CHANGE THIS BLM ORG CREATED BY BILLIONAIRES WAS USED TO REDIRECT FUNDS TO PERSONAL ACCOUNTS AND REMESSAGE BLACK POLITICS AROUND IMMIGRATION AND TRANS RIGHTS.

This show #succession should have #ados Black Americans livid. 10 years ago I wrote “The Era Within Which American Legacy Rises” & I made clear how life would collapse for Black Americans. Since then white families have taken off & now have $127 trillion. huffpost.com/entry/the-era-…
This isn’t about billionaires like @SenSanders & @ewarren keep pushing. This is about a large chunk of white folks eating everything. 30 percent or about 25 million white families that live like kings. While @barackobama casted #ados to lives of @Uber.
So instead of being livid as #ados we do as we have been for thirty years. Cheer on a celebration of white folks owning everything including our reparative justice claim. And let people tell us healthcare, HBCU, and mass incarceration are a fair exchange for trillions in debt.

So when the California secretary state basically repeats the reparations delineation #ados is anchored upon everyone is silent? @JoyAnnReid @rolandsmartin @aliciagarza need to say she is xenophobic for it as they did us & remain consistent. SAY ITS DIVISIVE NOW. DON’T GO QUIET.
Garza went to the Harvard Kennedy School and full on attacked #ados for this position. It’s clear she should now take that position to the California Secretary of State. Unless there’s more to it? And she doesn’t believe in the position and this was about smearing #ados. Image
This HKS @aliciagarza was attacking #ados at is the same Harvard Kennedy School that had to retract a full on fraudulent attack on #ados. Coincidence??? ImageImageImage

But #ados was told by @JimClyburnSC1 that the United States would not do cash payments for reparations? 🤷🏿‍♂️
@WhipClyburn says it here in case you need to see for yourself. 👀🤫
Isn’t VP @kamalaharris in charge of the Mexican border for the Biden administration and thus leading the talks to give these immigrant families this wealth? Didn’t she say NO to focusing on reparations to #ados?

That’s why you do down ballot Democrat so when all of this happens it is made clear you did not get what your vote was exchanged for during the election. 🤷🏿‍♂️ People literally sabotaged Black politics bc #ados said this all would happen…
You don’t move off the position until the promises are unwavering and written in stone to the point that they can be. Then when they aren’t met you bring your commitments out and make nonviolent political consequences for their not being met. Here people undermined that process.
It’s exceedingly clear many black folk have no idea what happens locally with funding or how poor blacks rely on government for survival. Locally the alternative to the Democrat would slash all aid & support. The key is to take hold of the party we built not play toy soldier. Image

This is ignorance. It’s basically erasure and a dismissive view of our lineage. This is like saying there should be no Nigerian or Igbo boundaries because Africa is one country. “ADOS and the Future of Black Humanity” Also he’s against U.S. reparations. thenewsnigeria.com.ng/2020/06/19/ado…
This image admits that in Africa the identification model in the above article was wrong.
“In Kenya, racism was a concept that existed only in books and never in conversation. Tribalism is what we lived with daily. Our identity was & still is ingrained in ethnicity.” Image
This is as ignorant as saying that none of should have first and last names. So when people come in a room and call a name we all answer at once. But he wants to do this while keeping his country.
