New York Post ^ | March 3, 2021 | Kenneth Garger

The father of Michael Brown and other activists from Ferguson, Missouri, are demanding financial support from Black Lives Matter after the organization revealed it raised over $90 million last year.

Michael Brown Sr., whose son was fatally shot by a white police officer in August 2014, along with the other activists that helped propel the movement, want $20 million from the group to help their community.

“Where is all that money going?” Brown Sr. asked in a Tuesday press release from The International Black Freedom. “How could you leave the families who are helping the community without any funding?”

Where does he think donations to the Third World end up? I doubt he’s that dumb, only Republicans are THAT dumb.

The Michael Brown case was one of the most clear cut of all in terms of justified police action.

Bill Ayers, and his co-terrorist, revolutionary communist wife, Bernardine Dohrn.
Both were leaders of the Weather Underground.

=======================================

The “Black Lives Matter” movement is partnered with the nonprofit group, Thousand Currents.

This is important because the Vice Chair of the Thousand Currents nonprofit, is Susan Rosenberg.

In 1985, Rosenberg was convicted for possessing hundreds of pounds of explosives. She and her organizations involved in multiple robberies, police officer assassinations, and bombings.

Rosenberg was sentenced to 58 years in prison. She spent 16-years in federal prison before being pardoned by Bill Clinton on his last day in office.

Now, Rosenberg is leading the fundraising efforts for Black Lives Matter. ...”

“Follow the Money” — Baby Daddy Michael Brown, Sr. and the Ferguson Grifters don’t give a crap about Junior. It’s just another black-on-black holdup. The laugh is on them, though; BLM surrenders almost all of its plunder to the DNC.

Can’t make it up.😃

I remember a lower-profile story where a group was fighting over the proceeds of T-shirt sales; apparently it is a thing now (along with a GoFundMe site) to imprint the faces of the deceased on T-shirts and sell them, and some relative wanted to know where the money went...

Yes, Mr. Brown, and your proud and honorable son, Michael, himself, did soo much for the community in which he lived and so proudly and honorably died!

BLM co-founder, Patrisse Cullors, says in interview she and co-founder, Alicia Garza, are inspired by Mao Zedong

Meanwhile, Mao Zedong, via his so-called “Great Leap Forward” and “Cultural Revolution”, is reported to have killed close to 70 million people!

Below, from Time Magazine, February 26, 2018

“[Patrisse] Cullors [CO-FOUNDER “BLACK LIVES MATTER”] weaves her intellectual influences into this narrative, from black feminist writers like Audre Lorde and bell hooks, to Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong.

Reading those social philosophers “provided a new understanding around what our economies could look like,” she says.

-—Patrisse Cullors, co-founder Black Lives Matter

_____________________________

Profile: Mao Zedong (aka Mao tse-Tung)

“Mao Zedong was the Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party from 1949 until his death in 1976.

Mao is arguably the greatest mass murderer in history, eclipsing even the murderous Joesph Stalin in this regard.

Some 70 million Chinese, along with countless Tibetans, Mongolians, Manchus, Koreans, Hmong, Uyghurs, and other nationalities, perished at his hands during his long and brutal reign.”

Cliff's Notes: Eric Mann

ERIC MANN, Part 1 of 2

“[Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse] Cullors, 36, was the protégé of Eric Mann, former agitator of the Weather Underground domestic terror organization”

Black Lives Matter co-founder describes herself as ‘trained Marxist’

by Yaron Steinbuch, New York Post, June 25, 2020

Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors said in a newly surfaced video from 2015 that she and her fellow organizers are “trained Marxists” – making clear their movement’s ideological foundation, according to a report.

Cullors, 36, was the protégé of Eric Mann, former agitator of the Weather Underground domestic terror organization, and spent years absorbing the Marxist-Leninist ideology that shaped her worldview, Breitbart News reported.


“The first thing, I think, is that we actually do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia in particular are trained organizers,” she said, referring to BLM co-founder Alicia Garza.

We are trained Marxists. ...”

Mann, Eric – Special Collections and University Archives

Part 2 of 2, ERIC MANN

“Mann was elected to SDS [Students for a Democratic Society] national committee in 1968.[18] He told the Associated Press that he believed in “continuous resistance” against “institutions and policies of corporate capitalism” and that SDS chapters transition from campus protests groups to community groups that would guide students as a “de facto government.”[19]

When SDS splintered into three groups in 1969, Mann, then a leader in the SDS faction, the Weathermen (Weather Underground), adopted the Revolutionary Youth Movement’s belief that violent “direct action,” a euphemism for terrorism, should be used as a tactic to dismantle the group’s perceived power centers of “US imperialism”.[20]

Mann and 20 others were arrested in September 1969 for participation in a direct action against the Harvard Center for International Affairs, which the Revolutionary Youth Movement saw as a university-sponsored institution for counter-insurgency.[14] [21]

Mann and 24 other Weathermen were charged with conspiracy to commit murder after two bullets were fired through a window of the police headquarters on November 8, 1969.

Mann surrendered to the police on four counts stemming from the November 8 incident: conspiracy to commit murder, assault with intent to commit murder, promotion of anarchy, and threatening.[22]

Mann was sentenced to two years in prison of which he spent 18 months in Billerica, Deer Island, and Concord State Prison ...”
