| Andrew, What does being a racist, bigoted, white nationalist get you if you're a white man named Darren Beattie? Under Trump's "leadership," it gets you a top State Department job as undersecretary of state for public diplomacy. You can bet Beattie and Trump are going to come for us. Chip in anything you can now to help our resistance against men like this who are spreading bigotry, racism, and white supremacy. Beattie has a TON of F'ed up tweets including one that says "Competent white men must be in charge"...yeah, you read that right. Take a look ⬇️ 
He even specifically threatened Black Lives Matter and said we "must learn [our] place." WTF! Trump and Darren Beattie have made their hate for organizations like Black Lives Matter clear and you can bet they're not going to waste any time attacking us. H.R. 9495 already passed the House with a 219-184 vote. This bill would allow the federal government to investigate and effectively shut down any tax-exempt organization — including news outlets, universities, and civil society groups — by stripping them of tax-exempt status based on a unilateral accusation of wrongdoing. And this is only the beginning. Can you rush a donation of $5 so we can be prepared for anything they throw at us? Not so fun fact: Darren Beattie was actually fired from the White House in the first Trump administration after attending a white nationalist conference. Trump is making it clear: This administration is happy to platform misogynists, white supremacists, and their ilk. That's not going to fly with us. Men like Trump and Darren Beattie think that they're above it all. Help us fight back by donating $5 or anything you can. We're not going to back down and we're going to hold men like Beattie accountable. In solidarity, Black Lives Matter
Our grassroots movement is pushing for Black liberation every single day. We are striving to create a world where Black people do so much more than just survive. It's time we thrive.
As an organization one of our biggest hurdles is consistency.
A recurring contribution of anything you can afford goes a long way as we plan for the months, years, and even decades ahead. This is the most effective way for small-dollar donors (like you) to power our Black liberation work.
Will you make a recurring contribution of $5 or more today so that we can keep building momentum for our movement? |
