but I have been uncomfortable about BLM since they started, now it seems it is unravelling.

I'm all for anti racism but that is not what BLM are about in their core.

Hmm that is going to end well.

Non-profit tied to BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors 'failed to disclose at least $175,000 in donations to the IRS' leading to demands for audit
Report claims group Dignity and Power Now failed to report donations to IRS

Cullors founded the group and led as board chair, according to filings

Now conservative watchdog group calls for an audit of group's finances

Follows questions from BLM chapters about Cullors' financial oversight

......

A non-profit group tied to Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors failed to report significant donations to the IRS, according to a new report.

Dignity and Power Now, a group that Cullors founded in 2013 to help black and minority prisoners, brought in at least $225,000 in 2016, but only disclosed $50,000 to the IRS, according to the New York Post.

Because the group claimed it took in only $50,000, it did not have to file a return or outline all of its spending and donations to the IRS.
