Black Lives Matter Ties To Communism

Some conservatives have begun speculating the unrest in American cities—even as late as Monday night in Washington, DC, as “protestors” unsuccessfully worked to tear down a statue of Andrew Jackson and set up an autonomous zone across the street from the White House—may in part be an attempt to affect the upcoming presidential election, with the chaos and violence intended to make it as difficult as possible for Donald Trump to win a second term.
Lending credence to this idea is the fact that at least one board member of Thousand Currents—the group fiscally sponsoring the most organized part of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, who have been involved in most of the activity surrounding the current unrest—tried the same thing almost 40 years ago during Ronald Reagan’s reelection campaign. And it landed her in federal prison for 16 years.
If there were any question whether Black Lives Matter has ideological ties to the Communist terrorists of the 1960s, the story of Susan Rosenberg [archived here] should put that issue to bed.
Rosenberg, who started out as a member of the 1960s revolutionary group Weather Underground, graduated into even more violent, and arguably successful, forms of terrorism in the 1970s and 1980s—including bombings at an FBI field office in Staten Island, the Navy Yard Officers’ Club in Washington, DC, and even the U.S. Capitol building, where she damaged a representation of the greatest of the Democrat defenders of slavery, John C. Calhoun. She currently serves as human and prisoner rights advocate and a vice chair of the board of directors of Thousand Currents.
As my colleague Robert Stilson explains here, BLM Global Network Foundation has been a fiscally sponsored project of Thousand Currents, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, since 2016. That means the BLM group, which runs the BlackLivesMatter.com website, does not have its own IRS tax-exempt status but is operating as a “project” of an organization that does. In the case of 501(c)(3) fiscally sponsored projects, this allows tax-deductible donations to be made to the project.
When “Black Lives Matter” is used to refer to an organization, it typically means the BLM Global Network Foundation that traces its beginnings to “three radical Black organizers — Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi.” Cullors recently went viral online when she admitted that she and others in the group were “trained Marxists.”
This leads to confusion when people express their support for “Black Lives,” because they may not realize this organization is ideologically tied—to the point of having Rosenberg on the board of the central group—with trained Marxists with a history of extremism and violence. In fact, Rosenberg was a member of the May 19th Communist Organization (M19). It was, according to this NY Post article from January 2020, “the nation’s only woman-run terror group,” as recounted by William Rosenau in his book Tonight We Bombed the U.S. Capitol.
And like all good communists, they hate Jesus because they want to be God.
It’s been said that the only good communist is dead communist. I disagree. There are no good communists, dead or alive. They’re all in hell or headed that way.

The Weather Underground group were – in many ways – a domestic counterpart to the most-violent and fanatical of the foreign groups of the time, such as Red Army Faction/Baader–Meinhof Gang, Shining Path, Red Brigades, Black September, IRA, PLO-Fatah, etc.
Founder/leader William “Bill” Ayers spoke openly during group gatherings about the communist utopia the group hoped to create in the United States, and the possibility that as many as 20-25 million Americans would have to be “liquidated” because they could not be salvaged (reprogrammed) in Marxist re-education camps. Ayers’ statements are known to us today because of an FBI mole inside the group – the late Larry Grathwohl – who was present much of the time during the peak years of the group’s activity in the late 1960s and 1970s.
Bill Ayers and fellow Weather Underground stalwart Bernadine Dohrn – later to be his wife – were eventually caught, charged and brought to trial in 1973 along with some of their colleagues. However, because of procedural errors on the part of the government, a mistrial was declared and the defendants set free.
Ever since that time, Ayers has been fond of saying of himself: “Guilty as hell, free as a bird…” and when he is asked about his days as a student radical and domestic terrorist, Ayers often replies that he wishes he’d “done more.”
Ayers went on to get a doctorate in education and retired a tenured professor of education from University of Illinois-Chicago, not many years ago. His pension is taxpayer-funded. His wife, Bernadine Dohrn, became a professor of law at Northwestern University Law School in Evanston, IL. She,too, retired a tenured professor. The Ayers were amongst the earliest and most-vocal supporters of the then-unknown Barack Obama, and Bill Ayers has been a friend and mentor to him for many years.
Thanks chiefly to sterling forensic writing analysis and detective work by Jack Cashill, Ph.D., and others, it is now believed that Ayers “ghost-wrote” Obama’s hit book “Dreams from My Father,” which helped propel him to the Democrat candidacy and ultimately the White House.
The long and the short of it, then, is that the fingerprints of the communists are all over the Democrat Party, the Deep State, and its various members and component parts.
And if the communists alone aren’t enough of a handful, they’ve joined forces with the Muslims in the so-called “Red-Green Alliance,” whose name derives from red as the color of communism, and green being a color associated with Islam.
There are many strands of evidence that this is the case, too many to list here – but the cooperation between these groups is evident when one looks at those in attendance at places like Portland, Seattle, Racine, and other hot-spots. Right alongside Antifa and BLM, one will find CAIR, the Nation of Islam, Islamic Students of North America, and other Muslim front groups.

Their antecedents killed Jesus, and their writings have him boiling in a vat of feces for all eternity.
Of course, they have enlisted others….

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.
