BREAKING NEWS – New York City, New York – Black Lives Matter defended their multi-million dollar mansion purchase with donor funds, in a lengthy Twitter thread.
The left-wing group came under fire last week after their lavish home purchase was exposed by New York Magazine. According to the report, “the California property was purchased for nearly $6 million in cash in October 2020 with money that had been donated to BLMGNF (Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation).”
“There have been a lot of questions surrounding recent reports about the purchase of Creator’s House in California,” Black Lives Matter official Twitter account posted. “Our goal is a simple one, which is to buy homes like this, keep them for about 20 years, and then sell them, with local black communities getting 10% of the proceeds, and co-founder Patrisse Cullors getting the other 90% for her very reasonable consulting fee, plus shipping and handling.”
