Sponsors and sympathisers of the hideous Black Lives Matter gravy train movement are left red-faced after one of their icons used BLM money to live like a queen. Perhaps she was inspired by Winnie Mandela, another mainstream media icon who achieved notoriety by burning Africans alive whild BBC presenter Michael Buerk and his BBC camera crew watched and filmed horrors unfolding.

Twitter is on the Black renegade’s side too: Black journalist Jason Whitlock’s tweet criticising BLM founder Patrisse Cullors for purchasing a luxury home has been censored by Twitter.

The co-founder and current leader of the ultra-leftist Black Lives Matter movement and darling of mainstream media has provoked a wave of criticism after she bought a house in Los Angeles for a total of $1.4 million in a neighbourhood that is almost entirely ethnic-European.

Black rabble-rouser Patrisse Cullors, 37, bought the house with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large garden, and a separate guest house in the neighbourhood where, according to the census, 88 percent of the population is White, and only 1.8 percent is Black. In total, she purchased four houses in 2020.

The news agency reported that Black Lives Matter received $90 million in donations last year, but it is unclear whether the organisation pays Cullors, as the finances of the organisation are unclear. 

Although the house is just over 30 kilometres from her orphanage in Van Nuys, it exists in a different world. In her book from 2018, she told her story of being raised by a single mother together with her three siblings in a ‘poor neighbourhood,’ where she lived ‘in a two-story burned-out building where the paint was peeling off.’

A wave of criticism dropped on Cullors for her decision to purchase the house, including from Jason Whitlock, a former ESPN journalist who wrote in a Tweet, ‘Black Lives Matter founder buys $1.4 million home in Topanga, which has a black population of 1.4 percent. She’s with her people!’

Whitlock, who is Black and a vocal critic of Black Lives Matter, had his tweet removed by Twitter and was then locked out of his account. 

Whitlock, who later regained access to his account, expanded on the topic, but his original Tweet has not been restored. Whitlock wrote in another post, ‘She had a lot of options on where to live. She chose one of the Whitest places in California. She’ll have her pick of White cops and White people to complain about. That’s a choice, bro.’

The censorship of Whitlock’s initial tweet occurred despite the head of the New York City’s Black Lives Matter chapter calling for an independent investigation into the finances of the movement following the revelation that Cullors purchased luxury property. Other incidents involving fraud are currently under investigation, including a Justice Department indictments for fraud against Sir Maejor Page, or Tyree Conyers-Page, who prosecutors said used the Facebook page called ‘Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta’ to enrich himself.

Cullors founded the BLM movement together with Alicia Garzo and Opal Tometi in 2013 as a response to the acquittal of George Zimmerman, who shot and killed Trayvon Martin during a physical altercation.
