| WATCH: Black Lives Matter Founder Said “We Are Trained Marxists” | ||

| [Activist Mommy] Well, we could have told you that. Elizabeth Johnston, the Activist Mommy, has been one of the few voices out there who has been bold enough to call the organization Black Lives Matter out for their radical, far-left Marxist views. She affirms, as we all do here at Activist Mommy, that black lives do matter, and that racism is clearly a sin. But the group that has co-oped this life-affirming phrase for their name has a distinct political ideology that Christians need to be made aware of. She’s highlighted some of these concerns in the following post:
The organization Black Lives Matter has been quite forthcoming about their ideology, as illustrated in a recently unearthed video in which co-founder Patrisse Cullors bluntly said that they are “trained Marxists.” “I think of a lot of things: The first thing I think of is that we actually do have an ideology frame,” she said in an interview with The Real News Network in 2015. “Myself and Alicia [Garza], in particular, are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists. We are super versed on ideological theories, and I think what we really try to do is build a movement that can be utilized by many, many black folk,” she continued.

| #11 Before BLM, similar groups would send reps to Israel to train with the paleos on anti police tactics. That training was then transferred to BLM. Funding came from Soros and Ford Foundation |

| #8 Don't know if I heard about this or the time or if it was just sort of obvious by their actions but I always thought this was common knowledge and the question was Maoist or Stalinist. I'm thinking Khmer Rouge at this point, desperately trying to burn it all down to year zero. |

| #5 Marxism doesn't take much training. Just give in to the base human state of envy, sloth and greed. |

| #3 "We Are Trained Marxists." For most readers, an unnecessary admission. |

| #2 Marxists are comfortable with slavery. Why should anyone pay attention to Marxists' whining about slavery? |
