UNSEEN VIDEO: BLM Founder Says It’s “Really Cool” That People Think Her New Book “Is Like Mao’s Red Book”
The Black Lives Matter movement is not only anti-police, anti-white, anti-capitalist but also proudly neo-Marxist.
Patrisse Cullors is an American artist and activist. Cullors is an advocate for prison abolition in Los Angeles and a co-founder of the Black Lives Matter movement. She also identifies as a queer activist.

“I think I have a really important role in speaking to youth. Maybe it’s because I came in the movement at 17-and-a-half, so I have just a knack for knowing how to organize young people into this organization,” Cullors adds.

She made the comments during a United States Social Forum panel on “Transformative Organizing Theory” in 2010. Among the breakout sessions at the workshop was “Socialism for the 21st Century.”
Multimillion-dollar property portfolios don’t buy themselves. Can’t be a communist leader without a palace or two. If everyone has to be forced to buy your book or even if (hundreds of) thousands have to die, it’s just a means to an end, right?
