Ten local Black Lives Matter chapters accused the movement’s national arm, BLM Global Network, of providing no acceptable financial transparency surrounding the “unknown millions of dollars” it has received since 2013. “[M]ost chapters have received little to no financial support from BLMGN since the launch in 2013,” the local chapters said in a statement Monday. Multiple founders of the BLM Global Network have said the local BLM chapters are the ones responsible for carrying out the work of the movement. The Daily Caller News Foundation reported in June that BLM Global Network spent $4.5 million on consultants, travel and compensation for its staff from July 2017 through June 2019 while at the same time providing only $328,000 to outside groups such as its local chapters.

Ten local Black Lives Matter chapters issued a statement Monday accusing the movement’s national arm of providing little to no financial support to its local chapters, which are responsible for carrying out BLM’s mission.

The local chapters, including those of Washington, D.C., Chicago and Philadelphia, said in the statement that Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation has provided no acceptable financial transparency surrounding the “unknown millions of dollars” it has reaped since its founding in 2013.

The Daily Caller News Foundation reported in June that Black Lives Matter Global Network spent $4.5 million on consultants, travel and compensation for its staff from July 2017 through June 2019 while at the same time providing only $328,000 to outside groups such as the local autonomous BLM chapters that carry out the movement’s work.

Former BLM Global Network Managing Director Kailee Scales told the DCNF in June that the figures from its fiscal sponsor’s financial statements “do not reflect, for example, the in kind support for chapters and fundraising directed to chapters and programmatic assistance to chapters.”

And you just know that any investigation into the matter will immediately and loudly be marked as racist.

Comrade, you do not question leadership. The glorious leaders tell you what to do, and you do it. It’s for the good of everyone.

IMHO, Black lives matter and antifa should be declared national terrorist organizations.

The bottom line is this is another example of White liberals controlling an organization meant to help Blacks and holding onto the money too! When will these sheep ever learn!
