Black Lives Matter Demands Boston Spend $15M on Summer Jobs for Illegal Aliens
2020-06-10
[BREITBART] The Boston, Massachusetts, chapter of Black Lives Matter (BLM) is asking that $15 million in American taxpayer money be spent on providing summer jobs to illegal aliens.

In a list of demands posted by the BLM Boston, the organization demands the city spend millions on creating thousands of summer jobs — some of which would be given to 14 to 22-year-old illegal aliens:

We demand that Mayor Marty Walsh cut the police budget by 10% from $414 million to $372 million or less, including cutting at least $40 million from the Police Department’s $60 million overtime budget. Those funds should be reinvested in the needs of Black and Brown communities, including providing housing and jobs to people released from prison.

In addition, we demand that funds are reinvested in youth jobs during a global pandemic and economic crisis. The City should fund $15 million for 5000 summer jobs and 1000 year-round jobs lasting from September to June, including hiring 14-22 year olds, hiring undocumented young people, and providing grants to organizations. Mayor Walsh, CFO Emme Handy, and Director Justin Sterritt: meet with young people immediately to discuss protecting young people this summer!

#14  Sounds like that deserves a two word response from the Chicago mayor.

#13  #8 Apparently, BLM don't think black wealth matters. Illegal aliens depress wages.

Building a coalition is a higher priority for them right now.

When victory is won, the spoils can be split up or fought over.

Leftist economics in a nutshell.

#11   if BLM was a spin-off of Acorn.

ACORN was the political wing. After they were shut down, the same people continued to do many of the same things under new names. Black Lives Matter is the African-American fighting wing, as Antifa is the anti-capitalist fighting wing, ALF is the pro-animal, anti-human fighting wing, etc. All part of the tightly organized, apparently amorphous Communist war against the West that was started by the Soviets, picked up by the Maoists, and now does nicely with financial support from a variety of very rich financial and theatrical types.

#9  I wondered if BLM was a spin-off of Acorn. Doesn't seem to be but there are ideological linkages. The following discusses some of these orgs and linkages Accuracy in Media.

#6  I'll see how busy the Financial District is tomorrow & Friday, but one indicator of mostly back to normal - the Southeast Expressway (I-93) was bumper to bumper at 3:00 yesterday afternoon. One month ago I hit triple digits (barely) going home on that stretch.
