Mothers of Tamir Rice, Breonna Taylor Criticize Black Lives Matter: ‘Benefitting Off the Blood of Our Loved Ones’

The mothers of several people whose names have been invoked by Black Lives Matter activists panned the group’s co-founder, Patrisse Cullors, for benefitting “off the blood” of their family members.

Cullors last week announced last week that she would be departing the organization, coming after reports disclosed her finances and real estate holdings.

“They are benefiting off the blood of our loved ones, and they won’t even talk to us,” Samaria Rice, the mother of a 12-year-old boy, Tamir Rice, who was shot by police in Cleveland, told the New York Post.

Rice added that she contacted Black Lives Matter to help in re-opening a federal investigation into her son’s death in 2014, exchanging several emails with Cullors years ago before nothing came of it.

“I don’t believe she is going anywhere,” Rice said of the BLM co-founder. “It’s all a facade,” she continued. “She’s only saying that to get the heat off her right now.”

Lisa Simpson, whose son was also killed in a Los Angeles Police Department officer-involved incident in 2016, also criticized the organization’s co-founder.

“Now she doesn’t have to show her accountability,” Simpson, 52, told the newspaper in reference to Cullors’ move to leave the organization. “She can just take the money and run.”

In an interview with The Associated Press, Cullors said that recent criticism and reports about her finances were not the reason why she’s leaving Black Lives Matter, saying she wants to focus on other endeavors including a book and a TV deal with Warner Bros.

What’s more, Cullors—who previously called herself a “trained Marxist” and has praised Chinese Communist Party founder Mao Zedong—alleged that the articles about the multiple homes she owns that are reportedly worth millions of dollars are part of a “right-wing” smear campaign. The Epoch Times has contacted Black Lives Matter for comment.

Black Lives Matter revealed to AP that the group took in $90 million after George Floyd’s death, which sparked nationwide Black Lives Matter demonstrations, riots, and related violence last year.

But, according to Simpson, Black Lives Matter raised $5,000 for her son’s funeral and she never received any of the money.

In March, both Rice and Simpson panned Black Lives Matters’ leadership.

“We never hired them to be the representatives in the fight for justice for our dead loved ones murdered by the police,” their statement said, the Post reported. “The ‘activists’ have events in our cities and have not given us anything substantial for using our loved ones’ images and names on their flyers. We don’t want or need y’all parading in the streets accumulating donations, platforms, movie deals, etc. off the death of our loved ones, while the families and communities are left clueless and broken.”

The mother of Breonna Taylor, meanwhile, criticized local Louisville Black Lives Matter activists earlier this year for using her daughter’s death for their benefit.

“I could walk in a room full of people who claim to be here for Breonna’s family who don’t even know who I am,” Tamika Palmer said in the since-deleted Facebook post. “I’ve watched y’all raise money on behalf of Breonna’s family who has never done a damn thing for us nor have we needed it or asked so talk about fraud. It’s amazing how many people have lost focus.”

Oh well

That’s what groids get for putting their hopes, aspirations and faith into fellow groids.

Stupid MFers


These families crying foul were out e early with the bull horn people too, so fouck them.

They will praise anyone or anything that hands them cash.sad

the family of Breonna Taylor did not bitch when they became multi millionaires themselves as a result of the death of their criminal spawn

I'm sick of ni ggers period. Yeah, I said it.

Worthless, horrible animals.

it’s all about the money

What a greed fest. They got $12M from Louisville but want more from BLM. BLM is full of grifters skimming on that $90M they collected. This is the very hallmark of Marxism! Poor stupid fools.

So True! I saw an article about the family of a teen suing the estate of Daunte Wright over a prior shooting. I'm sure they are anticipating that the estate will get a large payout like St George's family did.

Obama’s first term, Blacks were all hysterical with “da man is gonna make our lives so much better.”

2nd term, they were pissed that buckets of coins hadn’t found its way into their pockets.

Surprise, surprise, black people. You got played out by your own kind, again.
