BLM
cashes in with $100 million from liberal foundations, By Valerie Richardson - The Washington Times - 8/16/16
For all its talk of being a street uprising,
Black Lives Matter is increasingly awash in cash, raking in pledges of more
than $100 million from liberal foundations and others eager to contribute to
what has become the grant-making cause du jour.
The Ford Foundation and Borealis
Philanthropy recently announced the formation of the Black-Led Movement Fund [BLMF], a six-year pooled donor campaign aimed at raising $100
million for the Movement for Black Lives coalition.
That funding comes in addition to
more than $33 million in grants to the Black Lives Matter movement from top
Democratic Party donor George Soros through his Open Society Foundations, as well as
grant-making from the Center for American Progress.
“The BLMF provides grants, movement
building resources, and technical assistance to organizations working advance
the leadership and vision of young, Black, queer, feminists and immigrant
leaders who are shaping and leading a national conversation about
criminalization, policing and race in America,” said the Borealis announcement.
In doing so, however, the
foundations have aligned themselves with the staunch left-wing platform of the
Movement for Black Lives, which unveiled a policy agenda shortly after the fund
was announced accusing Israel of being an “apartheid state” guilty of
“genocide.”
Released Aug. 1, the platform also calls for
defunding police departments, race-based reparations, breaking, voting rights
for illegal immigrants, fossil-fuel divestment, an end to private education and
charter schools, a “universal basic income,” and free college for blacks.

BLM is
the Soros pick featuring “thugs for hire” to disrupt the election in
November. These are the Bolsheviks Soros
will use in his continuing attempt to keep his Communist revolution alive. They will be paid to travel from city to city
to burn, loot, shoot cops and elect Hillary.
A boycott of Soros, Ford and Borealis AG is in order. We also need to demand arrests and
convictions for BLM criminal acts. BLM
law breakers need to spend the rest of 2016 in jail and off the Soros payroll.
