black Lives Matter fundraising handled by group with convicted terrorist on its board

The co-founder of black Lives Matter names a convicted cop killer as one of her heroes, and the bLM national organization is fiscally sponsored through a leftist group whose board of directors includes a convicted terrorist.

Alicia Garza, one of three co-founders of the black Lives Matter national organization, has repeatedly talked about how convicted cop killer and wanted domestic terrorist Joanne Chesimard, also known as Assata Shakur, is one of her main inspirations. Susan Rosenberg, a member of the board of directors for the left-wing Thousand Currents group, which handles the intake of donations made to black Lives Matter, is a convicted terrorist who, among other things, was suspected of helping Shakur escape from prison.

Rosenberg, who was listed as the vice chairwoman of the board of directors for Thousand Currents until the webpage was pulled down this week, as first reported by the Capital Research Center, had been a member of the radical leftist revolutionary militant group known as the May 19th Communist Organization, affiliated with the Weather Underground terrorist group and other radicals. She was convicted on weapons and explosives charges and sentenced to 58 years in prison, serving 16 years before being pardoned by President Bill Clinton in January 2001.

Thousand Currents did not return a request for comment.

black Lives Matter, which is not a 501(c)(3) charitable group, uses an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) organization — Thousand Currents — as its fiscal sponsor, and so donations made on the black Lives Matter website through the left-wing ActBlue donation platform go to Thousand Currents, which says it then distributes them to black Lives Matter. black Lives Matter has gained a vast amount of national attention, and funding, since the death in Minneapolis police custody of George Floyd on Memorial Day.

Rosenberg was a radical in the 1960s and 1970s who landed on the FBI’s Most Wanted List for a number of suspected crimes and was nabbed in 1984 while unloading from her car and into a New Jersey storage unit hundreds of pounds of dynamite along with weapons, including a sub-machine gun. She was believed to have been part of future politically motivated bombing plots. Rosenberg and her M19 associates were also charged with roles in bombings during the 1980s at the Capitol and the Navy War College, among other targets. They were also tied to a 1981 Brink’s armored car robbery that killed a guard and two police officers.

Rosenberg was believed to have also played a role in Shakur’s escape from prison.

Garza wrote an article for the Feminist Wire in 2014 explaining that “when I use Assata’s powerful demand in my organizing work, I always begin by sharing where it comes from, sharing about Assata’s significance to the Black Liberation Movement, what it’s political purpose and message is, and why it’s important in our context.” Garza has repeatedly tweeted approvingly about Shakur.

Shakur is currently on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists List with a $1 million reward. A member of the revolutionary extremist group called the black Liberation Army, Shakur is wanted for escaping from prison in New Jersey in 1979 while serving a life sentence for murdering a police officer during a traffic stop. In 1973, Shakur and two accomplices were stopped for a motor vehicle violation on the New Jersey Turnpike by two New Jersey State Police troopers. Shakur was wanted at the time for her role in a number of serious crimes, including bank robbery, so they opened fire on the officers, injuring one trooper and killing Werner Foerster execution-style at point-blank range. She was caught and sentenced but then escaped, making her way to Cuba in 1984.

Rosenberg wrote an autobiography in 2011 titled An American Radical: Political Prisoner in My Own Country, in which she talked about her radical escapades, and since her release has served as the communications director for the American Jewish World Service and had a stint at John Jay School of Criminal Justice. She also joined Thousand Currents.

The website for black Lives Matter is operated under an umbrella group known as the black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation, chaired by bLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors, a self-described Marxist. black Lives Matter uses ActBlue to raise money, but claims from some conservative activists such as Candace Owens that black Lives Matter was just a "shell company" for donating money to the Democratic Party do not appear to be true.

black Lives Matter appears to make up the majority of the donation work that Thousand Currents does, with the 2019 public audit statement for Thousand Currents showing just over $6.4 million in total financial assets, including holding more than $3.3 million in assets for black Lives Matter as of last June. The audit shows Thousand Currents released nearly $1.8 million in donations to black Lives Matter during the year ending on June 30, 2019.

The black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation has pulled in huge amounts of cash since Floyd’s death, telling the Associated Press it received more than 1.1 million individual donations as of mid-June, with each donation averaging $33 — meaning the group has brought in more than $33 million in less than a month.

A 2017 report from black Lives Matter describes its founders — Garza, Cullors, and Opal Tometi — as “three radical Black organizers.”

Cullors said that she and Garza are “trained Marxists” during a 2015 interview with the Real News Network, noting: “We are super versed on, sort of, ideological theories, and I think what we really try to do is build a movement that could be utilized by many, many black folk.” Cullors told CNN's Jake Tapper in June that "Trump not only needs to not be in office in November, but he should resign now."


The group announced grant funds totaling $12.5 million in recent days.

black Lives Matter says it was founded in 2013 in response to George Zimmerman being acquitted in the murder trial of Trayvon Martin. President Barack Obama’s Justice Department under Attorney General Eric Holder found “insufficient evidence” to pursue federal civil rights charges.

A year later, we set out together on the black Lives Matter Freedom Ride to Ferguson, in search of justice for Mike Brown and all of those who have been torn apart by state-sanctioned violence and anti-Black racism,” the black Lives Matter website declares.

The “Hands Up! Don’t Shoot!” slogan that features prominently at most black Lives Matter protests is based on a myth also debunked by the Obama-Holder Justice Department, which concluded the shooting of Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson was justified.

  1. Let's start calling what doesn't-want-to-work, often black Zoomer Social Marxism what it is: IMMORAL HEDONISM. Start calling your posts "HEDONISM this" or "HEDONISM that" so we can actually WIN the culture war by calling the enemy what it is.

    White people in cold climates have to be more inventive to survive than black people in hot climates who can get by with instant gratification hedonism. So much for the BS DCI lie that "all men are created equal".

    My mom came to America when I was less than 2 years old. We came from South America. My mom did not speak English. This woman got not one job but 2 jobs! My mom did the floors at department stores at night and during the day my mom washed dishes. We were so poor my mom would eat the uneaten food from the dishes before she washed them. She did this in order to save money and provide me with new clothes etc.

    She also learned English from watching Sesame Street and reading billboards and signs. One thing I never realized before I went to kindergarten, I could read write (in print and cursive) I knew my addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. I could tell time on an analog clock. My mom would sometimes make me do book reports on something I read. All of this before kindergarten.

    What I never realized back then was that my mom barely spoke English and she was learning. Yet she made sure I knew everything and that I was very prepared for school. I believe being exposed to so much learning at such an early age showed me a lot of things and exercised my mind. In 4th grade I was asked to join Mensa from our school testing. I was asked to skip 2 grades every year but my mom didn’t allow it. She wanted me to grow up with ppl my age so I would not be socially stunted.

    Growing up we were extremely poor. We heard gunshots every night. Where we lived was extremely dangerous. My mom got us out of that ghetto by putting her face down and working hard. She became a very successful woman and retired decently young. She owns a home and condo both paid in full she gets a brand new car every few years. My mom put in the work and reaped the benefits of hard labor. She also instilled those values in us. My sister and I are both financially successful but more importantly we are emotionally happy and bright. We make good social and economical decisions. We both own our own companies and have the luxury of working from home. I retired at 40 but went back to work because I enjoy it. She never helicoptered us, she allowed us to fail and make our mistakes but was very supportive. Good decisions and taking time to climb the ladder of life is what she taught us reaps reward. I’m so tired of people wanting hand outs. America is very wealthy and full of opportunities if you want it out of life. Its not for someone else to give you. It’s for you to provide for yourself. I put myself through college by working and ending with zero debt. All these people are crying over debt but are lazy. Student loans were not guaranteed when I went to school. It wasn’t an option. So I did what I needed to do. People want easy routes but those of us who are financially solvent know and understands he value of hard work and dedication over a long term.
