Where do those BLM donations go?

Prime and his word salad answer is a snapshot of what is wrong with people on the left coast and why the outcomes there are what they are.

Also saying you’re confusing the words Black Lives Matter with the group Black Lives Matter is the most ludicrous comment one can make.

It’s like talking about Lebron and then saying I’m not talking about Lebron James I’m talking about Lebron Williams the butcher at the meat counter. Everyone knows him as Lebron.

Actually, according to financial advisors it is not a big bill If your household income is $200k, which is really good, then your housing expenses should be no more than $60,000-$70,000 per year. Considering you get a 30-year fixed at 2.75%, you can buy a $1,300,000 home with a total monthly payment of $67,800 per year, which is around 34% of your gross income.

You are wrong as usual.  When "financial advisors" recommend limiting housing costs to ~30% of some amount, that amount is the take-home pay AFTER taxes, not the salary BEFORE taxes. 

Even if we accept the fantasy that this person is getting paid $200,000 per year to lecture at some no-name college, after state and federal taxes their take-home pay is probably around $11,000/month.  No financial advisor in their right mind should be recommending that a 30-something living in an expensive area who should be saving as much as they can for retirement sign up for a mortgage that's 50-60% of their take-home pay.

Always nice to have Prime, a guy who hasn’t seen a black person live since he attended a Kool and the Gang concert in 1976, give us a  civil rights lesson.

This is pretty funny. But, not accurate. I see black people frequently. This is somewhat amazing since only 1.7% of the population in the city where I live is African American. That 1.7% do seem to get out and about though. Some of them are really hard to miss, like former Trail Blazer, Nate McMillian who is 6'5" or Damian Lillard, although he is only 6'2".

Prime how often do you see Nate? He is coaching in Atlanta now. Does he maintain a home in the area?

According to Wikipedia she was teaching at Otis College of Art and Design in the in the Public Practice Program.

Area Emphasis in Art + Social Practice

As part of the MFA Fine Arts program, Otis College offers an area of emphasis focused on the field of Social Practice, the only program of its kind in a Southern California art school or university. Encompassing a range of practices and interdisciplinary media, participating students will experience both individual art production in the studio and to work in various community or public contexts.

The Public Practice links:

The bottom line is she wasn't making anywhere near $200K at this bogus fine arts diploma mill.

In October, the activist signed "a multi-platform" deal with Warner Bros. Television Group to help produce content for "black voices who have been historically marginalized," she said in a statement.

It is not known how much Khan-Cullors received in compensation in either deal.

I don't know if these two fellows still have homes here. I've lived where I currently live for 22 years. Occasionally I see very tall and fit African American fellows at Starbucks and elsewhere around the city. Over time many of the Trailblazers have lived or live in West Linn. I assume it is because they can afford the multi-million dollar homes which are located in the gated communities where their privacy is secure. People around here are pretty nonchalant when it comes to sports and entertainment celebrities. I've not noticed people seeking their autographs or otherwise making a big deal over seeing them.

I am fairly sure these folks are not what Thin Lizzy meant when he suggested I never see black people. I don't see black folks who look like they come from a ghetto unless I go to the areas where they live. Which I sometimes do for doctor's appointments, etc.

Interesting. Sounds like you have had neat experiences living in Oregon.

Although I’m saddened that the expensive homes in the city are behind walls and gates. It sends a bad message.

Why do you think a black woman who runs BLM would prefer to live with evil white people?

Doesn't fit her narrative, but I don't blame her.

AP Exclusive: Black Lives Matter opens up about its finances
By AARON MORRISON

NEW YORK (AP) — The foundation widely seen as a steward of the Black Lives Matter movement says it took in just over $90 million last year, according to a financial snapshot shared exclusively with The Associated Press.

The foundation said it committed $21.7 million in grant funding to official and unofficial BLM chapters, as well as 30 Black-led local organizations. It ended 2020 with a balance of more than $60 million, after spending nearly a quarter of its assets on the grant funds and other charitable giving.

Last year, the foundation’s expenses were approximately $8.4 million — that includes staffing, operating and administrative costs, along with activities such as civic engagement, rapid response and crisis intervention.

The Black Lives Matter Global Network is incorporated in Delaware, but it’s a charity that’s fiscally sponsored by another nonprofit called Thousand Currents. The Black Lives Matter Global Network has chapters around the country.

This is why you can't find the salaries of the highest paid employees for the "non-profit" Black Lives Matter Global Network.

It's very suspicious how this is structured considering it was founded in 2016.  This structure completely hides what the top employees are paid.

Why funnel BLM donations through Thousand currents?

https://thousandcurrents.org/

They're going to great lengths to hide what the highest paid employees are making.

Sports journalist Jason Whitlock, who’s himself black, sarcastically called out Cullors for her blatant hypocrisy.

“Black Lives Matter founder buys $1.4 million home in Topanga, which has a black population of 1.4%. She’s with her people!” he tweeted Friday.

Ironic, that the one statement I’ve ever made on this forum that can be construed as racist is that blacks in groups cause a deterioration of quality of life and here we have the founder of Black Lives Matter, by her actions, concurring.😂
