BLM's Anti-Semitism

Now that Patrice Cullors, sometime Marxist and leader of Black Lives Matter, has retired from activism, it is worthwhile recording what she said at Harvard Law School.

That she called for "the end of Israel in 2015 is not surprising. We all knew that BLM was an anti-Semitic organization. The more salient point is that when she did so, at Harvard, no less, no one much noticed or cared. Anti-Semitism is acceptable in certain circles, and certain people are not to be called out on it. Keep in mind, this occurred during the Obama administration.


Natalie Winters reports:


Unearthed by The National Pulse, the clip comes from a panel entitled “Globalizing Ferguson: Racialized Policing and International Resistance” hosted by the prestigious law school’s Human Rights Program.


Cullors, who recently announced her resignation from the Black Lives Matter (BLM) Global Network Foundation, explicitly called for “the end” of Israel at the event:


“Palestine is our generation’s South Africa, and if we don’t step up boldly and courageously to end the imperialist project that’s called Israel, we’re doomed.”


“We could have a whole conversation about the settlements that we witnessed and the stories of murder and death at the hands of Israelis and Zionists,” she adds before describing Palestinian solidarity as “crucial” to the BLM movement.

We live in the post-truth era. And because so many are too "busy" entertaining themselves with graphically ugly and violent product from Hollywood (this is the era in which Dr. Seuss is banned and porn accepted -- because the left wants it that way), half the public doesn't even realize what's going on.
