The organization\u2019s founders are avowed Marxists, more interested in ideology than in solving racial inequality.<\/p>\n

Black Lives Matter purportedly exists to combat the alleged racism inherent in America\u2019s police forces. Police abuse, and particularly police abuse against black citizens is the\u00a0raison d\u2019etre<\/em>\u00a0of the organization.<\/p>\n

Yet, at the\u00a0PanAm Post<\/em>\u00a0we have found that while Black Lives Matter claim to oppose police abuse and racism around the world, the organization is simultaneously a great supporter of some of the world\u2019s most brutal and repressive dictators. In particular, the founders of BLM have been staunch supporters and allies of the sanguinary Venezuela dictator Nicolas Maduro and of the Castro regime in Cuba.<\/p>\n

It is ironic that as BLM protest alleged police brutality in the United States, the organization praises a regime known for the brutal practices of its security forces.<\/p>\n

In December 2015 Black Lives Matter sent a delegation, headed by the organization\u2019s co-founder, Opal Tometi, to act as observers during the Venezuelan Parliamentary elections of that year. The Maduro regime did not allow accreditation for observers from the Organization of American States, the UN, or the EU. The only accredited observers where from regimes and organizations friendly to the \u201crevolutionary cause.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later that same month Tometi penned\u00a0an article<\/a>\u00a0where she espouses, word for word, the regime\u2019s standard text for international propaganda. \u201cIn these last 17 years, we have witnessed the Bolivarian Revolution champion participatory democracy and construct a fair, transparent election system recognized as among\u00a0the best in the world<\/a>\u00a0,\u201d wrote Tometi about one of the world\u2019s most corrupt voting systems in history.<\/p>\n

Earlier in 2015 Maduro was given an award at the \u201cAfro-descendants Summit\u201d held in Harlem. Maduro was invited at the behest of the Black Lives Matter leadership.<\/p>\n

Scores of Venezuelans have been killed, not while resisting arrest, or while scuffling with the police in demonstrations, but by police snipers under orders to quell demonstrations by providing a few corpses. The best-known case is of former beauty queen, Genesis Carmona, killed by Maduro\u2019s snipers in 2013, two years before Tometi publicly declared her deep admiration for Maduro and his regime.<\/p>\n

Reading Tometi\u2019s piece, while remembering the atrocities and inhuman conditions suffered by the Venezuelan people, superbly\u00a0reported in\u00a0The New York Times<\/em>\u00a0by Meredith Kohut,<\/a>\u00a0one realizes that it is not racism that the co-founder of BLM is fighting. This level of cynicism is always a sign of a fanatical adherence to an ideology.<\/p>\n

\n

In the case of Black Lives Matter, both its co-founders are fanatical Marxists, and they have publicly admitted as much. Patrice Cullors, Tometi\u2019s colleague in the founding of Black Lives Matter, has publicly admitted to being \u201ca trained Marxist\u201d and \u201cwe are super-versed in ideological theory\u201d.<\/p>\n
