BLM Sent Legal Threats To NY Activist Who Called For Audit Of Cofounder's $3.2 Million Home-Buying Spree |
2021-04-17 |
[DAILYWIRE] The national Black Lives Matter (BLM) organization sent legal threats to a prominent New York BLM activist for using the Black Lives Matter name, according to both parties. BLM Global Network Foundation, cofounded by Patrisse Cullors, sent cease-and-desist letters to BLM Greater New York leader Hank Newsome claiming Newsome’s group is illegally uses the Black Lives Matter name, according to The Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF). Newsome earlier this week called for an independent investigation into Cullors’ finances after she reportedly spent millions on new properties. BLM Greater New York is unaffiliated with the national BLM group and is illegally operating under the BLM name, the foundation argued in its letters to Newsome. Newsome "is not and has never been a part of the official Black Lives Matter organization, but continues to use BLM’s name even after sending him multiple cease and desist letters. Therefore, any mention of him as a leader is not factual," and outside front man for the BLM Global Network Foundation said. "Only BLM chapters who adhere to BLM’s principles and code of ethics are permitted to use the BLM name." The national BLM group does not have legal rights over the Black Lives Matter name. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office rejected six applications from the group to trademark the phrase. |

#5 Still asking where is the US DOJ, FBI, IRS, The State AG's, State TAX Auditors and State Law Enforcement on this matter I think they have all become part of Organized Crime. |

#4 This dame (and BLM) didn't care about the optics, and given the usual treatment by the MSM/Silicon Valley, is it any wonder? |

#2 As long as she picks up any amounts distributed from BLM to herself as ordinary income on her 1040, there's not much of a tax problem on her end. Whether BLM deserves 501(c)(3) status is another matter. |
