More on the Background of “Black Lives Matter”
When I see a respected Pew Research study that shows that
two-thirds of Americans “express support for the Black Lives Matter movement”, I
realize that the leftist cultural revolution that we have been fearing for
years, has arrived in our country full force.
After seeing BLM signs, banners and tee-shirts prominently displayed for
years, while this group (along with Antifa and anarchist groups), rioted in the
streets, burned buildings and cars, destroyed small businesses and beat up and
killed anyone that dared oppose them, I now learn that two-thirds of Americans
“express support for the Black Lives Matter movement”.
I cannot unsee the continuing recurring acts of violence in
our streets under the BLM banner, mostly having nothing to do with black lives,
(other than using anecdotal events as a cover), and mostly concerned with
anarchic, Marxist, anti-American activity.
How did this obviously violent, neo-Marxist, Soros-funded
terrorist group gain the acceptance and backing of two thirds of Americans? The short answer is the biased media, who
have sanitized this corrosive activist movement, and made it appear to be an acceptable
American protest group. A fuller answer
perhaps lies in the long continuing exposure of our students to Marxist
ideation, which stress the altruistic features of socialism/communism, and not
the true civilization-strangling nature of Marxism/Leninism. The group “Socialist Alternative” is a
Marxist/Trotskyite group that aims at American academia.
In researching “Black Lives Matter”, I found it difficult to
find any unbiased and truthful information about it. Even normally accessed reference sources like
Google and Wikipedia, had obviously been sanitized to make BLM look like the
inheritors of Dr. Martin Luther King’s and Mahatma Gandhi’s peaceful, beneficent,
passive resistance social movements. But
the images of burning buildings and cars, and pillaged stores, under the BLM
banner, stuck in my mind.
The other end of the scale were the alt-right biased
critics, who painted obviously false, reverse-bias images of the BLM group,
fueled by white supremacy or worse. Of
course, these needed to be rejected for the same reasons as the sanitized,
biased, leftist sources.
I finally found several sources that had done their homework,
and had detailed, referenced, evaluations of “Black Lives Matter”. Several of these were from the right side of
the political spectrum, but it was clear that they were not just detractors of
the group, - they had done actual research, had gone back to the sources, and
had referenced their material.
What these sources found, which supports the BLM signs and
the rioting in the streets, is that BLM is no peaceful civil rights group
protesting peacefully under the First Amendment for equal justice for black
Americans. “Black Lives Matter” is a neo-Marxist,
George Soros funded, domestic terrorist organization. BLM happily self-identifies as a
neo-Marxist movement with various far-left objectives, including defunding the
police, dismantling capitalism and the patriarchal system, disrupting the
Western-prescribed nuclear family structure, seeking reparations from slavery
to redistribute wealth and via various offshoot appeals.
Whatever BLM’s propaganda says, and which, incidentally, is
eagerly lapped up by CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS and NBC, the New York Times and the Washington
Post, and now apparently accepted by 67% of Americans, BLM is not a peaceful
civil rights group. It is a Marxist,
anti-American, violent hate group that will destroy our American way of life,
if allowed.
The research that I found on BLM is voluminous, so I won’t
reproduce it. But I will give
references, so if anyone wants to follow up for themselves, the links are
here. The Marxist/Trotskyite “Socialist
Alternative” link and sub-links make really interesting reading, as do the two “Lady
Liberty” articles by A.P. Dillon about the BLM group itself, and it’s three very
well educated, black founders. (Two are lesbian activists, one is the straight
daughter of illegal Nigerian immigrants).
Other links are provided for reference.

I’ve been writing about the Marxist revolution taking place
in our streets under the auspices of what is represented as an innocuous and
valid, civil rights movement, Black Lives Matter. My conclusions about BLM and Antifa, their
sister organization being Marxist is based on writings and oratory by their
modern founders and leaders, and some of their history.
This article by Andy McCarthy goes further. It traces the roots of the current Marxist
movements back to the original violent “Black Liberation” and “Weather
Underground” of the 1960’s, and their leaders like Bill Ayers, Susan Rosenberg,
Joanne Chesimard, (also known as Assata Shakur), Kathy Boudin, and David
Gilbert. McCarthy also tracks how money
gets funneled into BLM and Antifa through left wing democrat non-profits.
There is no doubt that these anti-American, Marxist
organizations have used the George Floyd murder, the corona virus lockdowns and
the associated economic distress of our population, to launch a
Marxist/socialist/communist style revolution that they have been fomenting for
years. They have managed to hijack the
democrats to accept many of their extreme leftist tenets, like defunding and
emasculating the police, destroying American history, culture and heritage, and
“doxxing” or cancelling anyone who opposes them.
And all of this is in an environment where senile straw man
Joe Biden enjoys a double-digit lead in the polls by smiling like a “nice guy”,
and acquiescing to anything the rabid mob comes up with. Is there any doubt that our country is in
serious trouble?

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is an organized
movement dedicated to non-violent civil disobedience in protest to alleged
incidents of police brutality on Afro-American people.[2] An
organization known simply as "Black Lives Matter"[a] exists
as a decentralized network with over 30 chapters worldwide, while a
larger Black Lives Matter movement exists consisting of
various separate like-minded organizations such as Dream
Defenders and Assata's Daughters. The broader movement and its
related organizations typically advocate against police violence towards black
people, as well as for various other policy changes considered to be related to
black liberation.[3]
Infogalactic
Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a
decentralized left-wing[1] American
activist movement that campaigns against violence toward black
people and seeks to increase blacks' social and political power. It
was founded in 2013 by three black lesbians: the daughter of illegal immigrants
and legalization proponent Opal
Tometi,[2] Patrisse
Cullors, and Alicia Garza.[3] Under
the BLM banner, protests and propaganda are organized against police
killings of black people, and against racial
profiling, police brutality, and racial inequality in
the justice system.
The movement is a decentralized network with no formal
hierarchy, but influential opinion leaders.[5] BLM
considers itself an inclusive movement within the black community, welcoming
"Black queer and trans folks, disabled folks, black-undocumented folks,
folks with records, women and all Black lives along the gender spectrum."[6]
Black Lives Matter has allegedly been funded by George
Soros,[7] and
has been accused of being a domestic terror organization,[8] but
has generally been sympathetically depicted by the mass media and the
government under the Obama administration.[9][10][11]

BLACK Lives Matter leader Hawk Newsome warned that if
America does not cooperate with the movement's demands they will "burn
down this system and replace it."
