AmazonSmile Charity Platform Drops Black Lives Matter as Org Dodges Calls for Financial Transparency
E-commerce giant Amazon has removed the Black Lives Matter organization from its AmazonSmile charity platform as the organization faces increasing financial scrutiny. Amazon previously was a major cheerleader for Black Lives Matter, including making large donations to the group and a notorious incident in which founder Jeff Bezos scolded a customer for saying “All Lives Matter” in an email.
The Washington Examiner reports that Amazon has removed the Black Lives Matter organization from its AmazonSmile charity donation platform as the social justice group faces increased financial scrutiny. AmazonSmile has donated $306 million to U.S. charities throughout its existence, money that BLM will now be cut off from.

Amazon previously donated $10 million to BLM and 11 other social justice groups during nationwide unrest caused by the killing of George Floyd. Multiple other silicon valley tech firms embraced the group amidst riots throughout the country, including Netflix, and Hulu. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos also scolded an Amazon customer in an email for saying “All Lives Matter.”
An Amazon representative discussed the removal of BLM from the AmazonSmile platform with the Washington Examiner, stating:
Charitable organizations must meet the requirements outlined in our participation agreement to be eligible for AmazonSmile.
Among other eligibility requirements, organizations are required to be in good standing in their state of incorporation and in the states and territories where they are authorized to do business.
Organizations that don’t meet the requirements listed in the agreement may have its eligibility suspended or revoked. Charities can request to be reinstated once they are back in good standing.
The co-founder of the BLM organization, Patrisse Cullors, who resigned from the group in May said that the unaccounted millions her group received came from “white corporation guilt.” Cullors stated: “People have to know we didn’t go out and solicit the money. This is money that came from white guilt, white corporation guilt, and they just poured money in.”
BLM shut down its online fundraising on February 2nd after California and Washington issued legal threats to the group of failing to report what it did with the millions it received during 2020. The organization published a report in February 2021 which alleged that it ended 2020 with $60 million on hand.
Filings recently reported by the Washington Examiner found that BLM has retained the services of the law firm owned by Democratic lawyer Marc Elias who previously funded the anti-Trump Steele dossier while serving as Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign general counsel.

BLM Activist Who Raised $600K in Senate Race is a Farrakhan Fan
Black Lives Matter is a racist hate group. The media works almost as hard to cover up the fact as BLM's stars work to broadcast it.
Meet Gary Chambers Jr., a Black Lives Matter activist recently being promoted by Rolling Stone magazine.
Blunt-Smoking, Confederate Flag-Burning Senate Candidate Is Raking in Big Money - Rolling Stone
Chambers Jr. raised $600K. Also, he's a racist.
Gary Chambers Jr., an East Baton Rouge activist running for the Senate, appeared on the Elevated Places - "Ask Dr. Ava" podcast of Dr. Ava Muhammad, who is listed as the national spokesperson for Farrakhan, the Nation of Islam leader who has a long history of antisemitic comments, including calling Jews "wicked" and comparing them to "termites."
The podcast’s co-host Terence Muhammad, who has tweeted several times about his support for Farrakhan and has a profile picture with Farrakhan on his Twitter and Instagram, introduced Chambers by saying Chambers "loves the honorable Louis Farrakhan" and "loves his work."
"So first of all let me say to the Honorable Louis Farrakhan that I have been listening to him since I was a young man with my father," Chambers said. "He used to come on TV here in Baton Rouge and my dad kicked me to the game at about 13 or 14 and I’ve been listening ever since because when a Black man stands up for Black folks it makes a Black man want to stand up."
"I have been a supporter [of Farrakhan] from the distance forever, so let me say that first," Chambers continued.
Don't expect there to be any consequences.
Keith X. Ellison spent a whole lot of time in the Nation of Islam, spewed hate, and got ushered up the political elevator. Obama posed with Farrakhan. So did a whole bunch of Congressional Black Caucus members. I doubt that the Democrats will disavow Chambers and the media will do its best to ignore the story.
That doesn't mean that Chambers and those who continue to celebrate him shouldn't be held accountable.

Anti-Police Activist Charged With Unspeakable Act of Political Violence
Suspect appeared on MSNBC and took part in Obama's 'My Brother's Keeper' program
A radical anti-police activist was charged Monday with the attempted murder of Louisville, Ky., mayoral candidate Craig Greenberg. The activist, Quintez Brown, was apprehended shortly after he allegedly entered Greenberg's campaign headquarters and fired multiple shots with a handgun.
Brown, 21, pleaded not guilty to attempted murder and four counts of wanton endangerment. No one was injured during the attack, but a bullet reportedly grazed the back of Greenberg's sweater. The mayoral candidate, a Democrat, said the suspect walked into his office where he and four other staffers were meeting Monday morning. "When we greeted him, he pulled out a gun, aimed directly at me, and began shooting," Greenberg told reporters. "The individual closest to the door managed to bravely get the door closed, which we barricaded and the shooter fled the scene."
Police said Greenberg, who is Jewish, appeared to have been targeted in the shooting. Authorities did not identify a motive for the crime and said they believe Brown acted alone. The alleged attack occurred two months after Brown announced his candidacy for Louisville Metro Council. Among his stated policy goals were "freedom, reparations," and "full employment."
Brown had been a student at the University of Louisville, where he was an MLK scholar studying philosophy and Pan-Africanism, a controversial ideological movement whose advocates include Malcolm X, Robert Mugabe, and Muammar Gaddafi. His social media bios called for "the total liberation and unification of Africa under scientific socialism."
Brown also served as opinion editor for the student newspaper, the Cardinal, and was a former intern and biweekly columnist for the Louisville Courier Journal, where he wrote extensively about how law enforcement and other "institutions in society work together to maintain the status quo of the spectacular Black death."
An active participant in the so-called racial justice protests of 2020, Brown's journalistic output and social media posts reflect a radicalized individual who was skeptical of representative democracy and believed Marxist revolution was the most viable path to achieving racial justice.
Days before the alleged attack, Brown urged his followers to join the Lion of Judah Armed Forces, a black supremacist militia whose ideas are aligned with those of the Black Hebrew Israelite movement. Adherents of the latter group were charged in the 2019 murders of four Jewish people at a kosher supermarket in Jersey City, N.J., which authorities described as a "targeted attack."
Years earlier, Brown was embraced by mainstream journalists and Democratic Party leaders. He appeared alongside Joy Reid during an MSNBC panel in 2018, in which he called for "common-sense gun reform." He posed for photos with Rev. Al Sharpton, a notorious anti-Semite. The Obama Foundation recognized him as a "rising face" as part of the former president's "My Brother's Keeper" program, and he was one of 22 students selected to attend the inaugural MBK Rising! Summit in 2019.
BLM-Linked Bail Fund To Free Louisville Activist Who Shot at Jewish Democrat
A local bail fund linked to Black Lives Matter Louisville plans to post bond for Quintez Brown, the anti-police activist charged with the attempted murder of mayoral candidate Craig Greenberg.
On Monday, police charged Brown with attempted murder and four counts of wanton endangerment after he allegedly entered Greenberg's campaign office, pulled a gun, and began shooting. A district judge set Brown's bond at $100,000, which the Louisville Community Bail Fund plans to post. The group was cofounded by Black Lives Matter Louisville organizer Chanelle Helm and has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars freeing heinous criminals arrested for murder, rape, domestic violence, and other violent crimes.
According to police, Greenberg, who is Jewish, appears to have been targeted in the shooting. The mayoral hopeful's positions on public safety and policing are at odds with Brown. Greenberg, a Democrat, has centered his campaign around a plan to root out violent crime—which he called the "city's biggest challenge"—by hiring more police officers. Brown, meanwhile, wrote columns for the Louisville Courier Journal that accused law enforcement and other "institutions in society" of "work[ing] together to maintain the status quo of the spectacular Black death."
A Louisville Community Bail Fund member submitted the $100,000 cashier's check to release Brown late Wednesday afternoon, WHAS political reporter Rachel Droze revealed. The group's representative sported a "Free Angela" T-shirt in a reference to Angela Davis, the former Communist Party USA leader and avowed Marxist whose guns were used in a California terrorist attack carried out by the Black Panthers that killed four people.
In addition to posting Brown's bond, the Louisville Community Bail Fund group said it will provide "mental health resources" for the activist upon his release from prison. Brown's allies have called it "disgusting" and "irresponsible" to associate the activist's "connection to Black Lives Matter" with the shooting.
Mainstream journalists and Democratic Party leaders have long embraced Brown. He appeared on a 2018 MSNBC panel with Joy Reid to call for "common-sense gun reform" and participated in the Obama Foundation's "My Brother's Keeper" program, which recognized him as a "rising face."
Nonprofit groups like the Louisville Community Bail Fund have raised millions of dollars in donations since George Floyd's death in 2020. The significant financial windfall comes thanks in part to top Democratic officials. Vice President Kamala Harris, for example, urged her followers in June 2020 to donate to the Minnesota Freedom Fund—in September, the group freed an alleged domestic abuser who was arrested for murder just weeks later.
The Louisville Community Bail Fund has also faced criticism over whom it agrees to bail out. In November 2020, the group posted $30,000 to release Andre Clayton, charged in a double shooting, who went on to break his bail terms by posting images on social media with drugs, cash, and guns. The Louisville Community Bail Fund admitted that it did not talk to Clayton or his attorney prior to posting his bond nor did it check his criminal history.
Kentucky Republicans last month introduced a bill that would make charitable bail illegal in the state.
