Black Lives Matter calls for month-long boycott of 'white companies' during the holiday season to support 'Black Xmas' and end 'White-supremacist-capitalism'

The Black Live Matter movement has announced its seventh year of boycotting 'white companies' during the holiday season to support 'Black Xmas.'

On Black Friday, the official Black Lives Matter Global Network shared an Instagram post calling to 'support Black-led-Black-serving organizations.'

'We're dreaming of a #BlackXmas. That means no spending with white companies' from Black Friday until New Years Day the official blackxmas.org site states.

The group suggest three ways for its supporters to take part in Black Xmas: Build Black, Buy Black, and Bank Black.

The group is encouraging its followers to 'buy exclusively from Black-owned businesses' claiming 'white-supremacist-capitalism uses policing to protect profits and steal Black life.'

It also push its supporters make donations to 'Black-led, Black-serving organizations' in lieu of holiday gifts and move their money from 'white corporate banks (that finance gentrification, prisons, and environmental degradation) to Black-owned ones.'

Black Xmas begun in 2014 in response to the police shooting of John Crawford, a black man who was fatally shot in an Ohio Walmart while holding a BB gun that was for sale in the store.

A post on the Black Lives Matter website list several other names including Steven Taylor, who was also killed inside a Walmart, Yuvette Henderson and Redel Jones, 'Black mothers who were accused of petty thefts before their lives were stolen by police,' and Albert Ramon Dorsey and Dennis Todd Rogers 'who were gunned down when 24-Hour-Fitness locations called in police on Black male patrons.'

A blog post published on the blacklivesmatter.com last week explains: 'Black Lives Matter has been challenging people to 'dream of a #BlackXmas,' to intentionally use our economic resources to disrupt white-supremacist-capitalism and build Black community.'

There is a black guy down the street that sells work boots. Maybe they could buy some and go to work?

Once people understand that Christmas in America for the most part has turned into a Merchants holiday, I I guess now we’re going to have a slightly different kind of merchants holiday but it will be a Merchants holiday none the last like it has been probably for the last sixty maybe seventy years.

There are those people who do celebrate the traditional Christmas, and I reflect although I don’t think it was during the winter solstice but that’s not my point here.

There is no Christ in Christmas. If you go into a big box store you might find some enthronement candles with the picture of Jesus on it but the Christmas stuff is all Reindeer and Santa and elves and all kinds of weird junk that has absolutely nothing to do with Jesus Christ but has everything to do with selling a load of merchandise and making extreme profits off of this faux representation.

it would be nice to go to stores where there are no blacks. Maybe they’ll spread their boycott to our neighborhoods, that would be great.

I assume that means they won’t loot white owned businesses too.
