Pretty bad when other black activists are calling for an investigation

Surely you must be able to find several organizations or people BLM has helped, right?
Should be real easy. Feel free to prove us wrong otherwise it's quite obvious BLM is a sham.
It is super easy. It would have been super easy for you, too, just conducting a 3 second google search.
Firstly, here's the impact statement from BLM. Quick google search:
https://www.thenonprofittimes.com/npt_articles/blm-impact-report-shows-networks-strength-fundraising/ BLMGNF distributed $21.7 million — 23 percent of total assets — in grants to 33 organizations and Black Lives Matter chapters. The organization reported $8.4 million in operating expenses. At the end of the year, after expenses and grant distributions, the organization had a balance of roughly $60 million.
Secondly, and more importantly, here's some background about how the BLM Foundation operates:
https://www.insider.com/what-is-thousand-currents-black-lives-matter-charity-2020-6Cliffnotes: It operated under a fiscal sponsorship with a thousand currents up until last year. What this meant is that a Thousand Currents had to approve BLM spending/grant disbursements until BLM was given non-profit status (which happened last year) and they were legally responsible for any malfeasance.
Cullors had already purchased three of her "suspicious properties" by the time the sponsorship ended, during a time when she wouldn't even have been able to misappropriate BLM money if she wanted to.
As I said in the very first line of the post you quoted, BLM is not make-a-wish. Their mission is not to handout money to individuals. It is a policy organization. I can understand the families' frustrations over their loved ones playing a huge part in BLM's visibility, but that is not proof of fraud.
In the last year, donations to BLM organizations exploded, possibly 50x greater than any previous year. Any organization would have hiccups with that kind of growth and issues with dispersing, especially considering there are dozens of other local organizations and chapters with variations on the name with no affiliation. The fact that BLM Foundation operated under a fiscal sponsorship is just further proof of that.
The fact that there are tensions between them is not unexpected or proof of fraud. In the very article you posted (presumably to support your point), the author details how Cullors made most of her money through outside projects (including a best selling book) and specifically says " although there is no suggestion of any wrongdoing on the part of Cullors."
