Black Lives Matter: Don’t buy from White businesses this holiday season:
It’s the holiday season again and time to decide where to shop based on people’s skin color — or so says Black Lives Matter.
The group for the seventh year is urging people to boycott stores owned by White people and only to patronize Black-owned businesses.
“When buying items, spend exclusively with Black-owned businesses from Black Friday through New Year,” the group said on its website and Instagram promoting its annual #BuyBlack campaign.
The group argues that “white Capitalism” created police to keep down Black people. It cited several shootings of Black people by police in stores, including the fatal shooting of John Crawford, a 22-year old Black man at a Walmart store in Beavercreek, Ohio.
Mr. Crawford had picked up a BB rifle that was for sale. He was shot by city police after another shopper called 911 saying Mr. Crawford was pointing the gun at people. The shopper who made the call later blamed Walmart for not keeping the BB rifle in a box. --->READ MORE HERE
Black Xmas: BLM slammed for call to boycott ‘white companies’ during festive season:
Black Lives Matter has continued with its tradition of boycotting 'white companies' for the seventh year in a row
Black Lives Matter has continued with its tradition of boycotting “white companies” for the seventh year in a row during the month-long festive season. It has also urged support for “Black Xmas”. On Black Friday, the #BlackLivesMatter Global Network Foundation took to Instagram, where it stated, “Let’s use every tool in our toolbox…including our dollars…to end white-supremacist-capitalism.”
The post also noted, “It’s officially #BlackXmas! Time to: #BuildBlack - Support Black-led-Black-serving organizations. #BuyBlack - Skip the Black Friday sales and buy exclusively from Black-owned businesses. #BankBlack - Move your money out of white-corporate banks that finance our oppression and open accounts with Black-owned banks. White-supremacist-capitalism uses policing to protect profits and steal Black life,” while including the name of John Crawford - a 22-year-old African-American man who was killed in August 2014 inside a Walmart store in Beavercreek, Ohio, by a cop for holding a BB gun that was for sale. “Black Xmas” was reportedly started after Crawford's death. --->READ MORE HERE
