BLM is a Marxist organization with a political agenda. It cares nothing about "Black Lives Matter" except as a shield, knowing that nobody would argue with that slogan. Shielded by sincere people who actually think its about justice, the BLM subversives even manage to make a decent slogan divisive. They murdered Jessica Doty Whitaker in Indianapolis merely for saying "All Lives Matter". Even Black people are not safe from BLM's inversion, such as their murder of 8-year-old Secoriea Turner in Atlanta, or the murder of 19-year-old Horace Lorenzo Anderson, Jr. and 16-year-old Antonio Mays, Jr. by armed "security" of CHAZ, the Seattle "autonomous" zone set up by Antifa terrorists under the banner of "Black Lives Matter". These are just some of the murders that have occurred under their auspices, yet you won't hear any of the well-funded mobs chanting "Say Their Names!" since the murderers come from their own ranks, protected by the organization and their highly-placed defenders for whom their lives apparently did not matter.
BLM's leaders mask their true objectives under a narrative that was never for them about police brutality at all, knowing that once the mob was incited by slogans, they can exploit the situation for all its worth. They care more about "intersectionality" than police brutality; getting triggered by cancel culture than real civil liberties. Their founders and leaders are the epitome of privilege and wealth, caring nothing about the streets and communities except to manipulate mobs on behalf of their (and their financiers') Marxist ideology. A growing number of legitimate activists have publicly accused those behind the BLM organization of "hijacking" their clearly-defined cause, aware now that those leaders have a very different cause than what they hide behind.
They used the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis as the catalyst, but in neighboring St. Paul a local BLM leader, Rashad Anthony Turner, has stepped down in protest over the organization's absolute insistence on the cause of public government schools. A staunch advocate of education equity, Turner said: "Black Lives Matter has been co-opted. The movement's been hijacked." Why should not Black parents and other families have the right to choose for themselves rather than forced to accept government schools? Clearly those interests behind the BLM movement want to control the curriculum just as they are now rewriting history and engaging in their crusade/jihad to force their dogmas through the mobs which can be easily directed and manipulated.
On 11 June 2020, two female members of the African American Community Advisory Council in Seattle were booed while telling the Antifa occupiers they hijacked the "Black Lives Matter" message by pushing such issues as defunding the police and slapping Amazon with more taxes rather than focusing on police brutality. As I've previously discussed, Antifa and the BLM movement propose Statist "solutions" that would only make the problems they allegedly rail against worse. "Defunding the police" is not about privatization but enabling a new police to carry out their own pet projects instead of other projects, while taxation would hurt factory workers and not the "woke" billionaire philanthropist who actually cares as little about Black lives and livelihood as the BLM founders. Their effort would also benefit the foreign interests (Israel's Unit 8200, the Chinese Communist Party, and Russian Eurasianists) wanting to further transfer American manufacturing and hi-tech capabilities to their countries, as well as the greedy heads of the multinational corporations who would profit more if their operations were outside America.
In Oregon, the mostly-White upper-class thugs of Antifa have brought their riots and destruction into a Black neighborhood in North Portland. This prompted a local civil rights veteran, Ron Herndon, to write to Mayor Ted Wheeler, complaining of "elements" that are "99% white": "It has nothing to do with helping Black people. These hoodlums are needlessly scaring neighbors and their children. At some point, enough is enough." The BLM organization and its media backers justify the riots by only zeroing in on peaceful protests, a diversity of tactics being within the Marxist subversive handbooks so that the violent can shield their activities behind the others. Not only are BLM and Antifa connected under the same banner, but the media talking heads have shamefully denied the very existence of Antifa, despite that terrorist group controlling the streets of Portland and many other American cities right now in efforts to create their Communist utopia out of the ruins and ashes of destruction.
That it quickly spread not only across the United States but the world reveals a concerted effort enabled by financial networks. Rather than being a grassroots effort, in Britain entertainers from privileged backgrounds and the far-leftists of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) hijacked BLM protests for their own political agenda. This includes SWP activist Gary McFarlane, who often appears on both the BBC and Russia Today. The Black British actress Imarn Ayton, who organized two protests in London in June, stressed that BLM UK - which calls itself an "abolitionist movement" (in the same vein as Communist calls of "dismantling" the system) - is a "Marxist" movement that has "hijacked" the cause, using social media to get donations they are "not going to use that to better the black community. They are going to use it to abolish the police, remove prisons and get rid of capitalism."
In true Marxist fashion, the BLM organization has high-placed financial backers, corporate support, and was founded by three women (and its chapters in many other places repeating the same pattern) with privileged backgrounds and profiting off their cause. The claims about "capitalism" is actually about ensuring its own favored Big Banking and Big Business interests would enjoy monopolies, free from competitions in the market. The riots that have occurred under its banner - and its enablers who include the staunchest advocates of lockdowns using the virus as an excuse - have wrecked small businesses and workers in many locations. The speed with which protests initially about police killings of Black people (ignoring the other 72% which points to something deeper than the racial narrative) quickly turned into other issues having absolutely nothing to do with social justice, reveals that the organization Black Lives Matter Global Network is a fraud manipulating an initial cause it has completely divorced from context and used to latch upon it various Marxist, "intersectional" theories owing more to stuffy university classrooms inaccessible to most people than a grassroots effort of Black communities.

BLM is a private corporation, not a non-profit organization. Its leaders are elitists who are not transparent about how donations are spent, setting up ideological-based programs rather than social initiatives in the communities. It arose out of a 2013 hashtag campaign, propelling its founders and leaders to profit through what was more a brand and not yet a concrete organization. In the process, it sidelined existing organizations, including the Santa Clarita, CA-based Black Lives Matter Foundation, registered in May 2015 by Los Angeles music producer Robert Ray Barnes who operates grassroots community projects. News outlets and funding websites have favored the Global Network over the pre-existing Foundation.
For all its talk about equality, the BLM's own website reveals an agenda that not only has nothing to do with "systemic racism" but would dismantle Black families and communities. Under "What we believe", it states: "We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and 'villages' that collectively care for one another, especially our children to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable." In its "About" section, it reveals its collectivist agenda that would level the local and ethnic diversities of Black communities: "we must move beyond the narrow nationalism that is all too prevalent in Black communities. We must ensure we are building a movement that brings all of us to the front." What do these proposals have to do with police brutality and civil liberties? Its nothing but Marxist social engineering bred from the Frankfurt School, masquerading as "Black pride".
The reality is that the three BLM founders have social and personal backgrounds that put them at odds with the nature of the oppressed, impoverished communities they anointed themselves to represent. They rail against the same "systemic racism" that was no barrier to their own higher university degrees or wealth. Patrisse Cullors and Alicia Garza place just as much focus on their sexual orientation as their race. Garza further holds to an identity which is just as much Jewish as Black. As the daughter of Nigerian immigrants, Opal Tometi has a different experience than the descendants of Africans who were brought here hundreds of years ago as slaves and evolved their unique culture, which is perhaps why she latches issues such as mass immigration upon the cause. This is why the three prefer to divert attention to "intersectional" issues than a very specific focus where true lasting change could be effective. At the very least, we can say these anointed leaders do not represent a legitimate cross-section of American Black communities. These three are Marxist community organizers who see their collectivist subversion as the way for their own personal and ideological power. I will delve deeper into their specific Communist and Globalist connections in Part 2....
