The Shocking Truth About the 'Marxists' Behind Black Lives Matter Organization: 'No Forgiveness, No Reconciliation'
Read Transcript
- After the death of George Floyd
and the custody of the Minneapolis Police,
the Black Lives Matter movementand the main organization
have exploded into greaternational prominence
and gained a very wide following.
- [Crowd] Black lives matter.
Black lives matter.
Black lives matter.
- [Reporter] The movementconsists of many organizations,
including the originalBlack Lives Matter group.
On it's website it lists many goals,
the majority of whichmost people would support
like, we work vigorouslyfor freedom and justice
for black people and, byextension, all people.
But despite such mainstream ideas,
leaders of Black Lives Matter
come from a far left point of view.
- Myself and Alicia in particularare trained organizers.
We are trained marxists, we are
super versed on sort of,ideological theories.
- [Reporter] The group takespositions many Americans
would find very controversial,
like it's view of the traditional family,
saying we disrupt thewestern-prescribed nuclear family
structure requirementby supporting each other
as extended families and villages.
Positions like those arewhy many black Americans,
including Christians whosupport racial justice,
appose the organization's goals.
Black Christian pro life speakerand author Ryan Bomberger,
has written, top 10reasons I'll never support
the Black Lives Matter movement.
They're radically pro abortion.
I mean, this is the movementthat announced solidarity
with the abortion industry.
Back in 2015, there's actuallya solidarity statement
standing behind the abortion industry,
standing with Planned Parenthood,
so how can you say that blacklives matter on one hand
and then partner with theleading killer of black lives?
- [Reporter] Formerrepublican congressman,
Lieutenant Colonel AllenWest disagrees with the idea
that police are committingmass attacks on black Americans
and it's distraction fromthe issue of black abortion.
- Black Lives Matter and the media
wants us to believe it'sa genocide out there.
The real genocide is that 20million unborn black babies
have been murdered in the womb since 1973.
- [Reporter] In addition toit's support for non traditional
families, the group alsostrongly believes in gay rights,
saying we foster aqueer-affirming network.
- The Black Lives Matter movement
heavily promotes homosexualityand transgender ism,
they wanna do away withheteronormative thinking.
Well, we see what happenswhen we do away with
God's framework of family, ofa married mother and a father
and it leaves behind vulnerablecommunities which suffered
so many negative outcomes.
- [Reporter] Westbelieves the organization
is simply another far left group,
speaking to it directly in a recent video.
- Because you don't stand for anything
except the same old whiteprogressive, socialist,
ideological agenda, that wewill have nothing to do with.
- [Reporter] And Bombergerpoints to another key problem,
from a biblical perspective.
- They have no forgiveness,no reconciliation,
there's no call for that.
So as a Christian, whenour salvation is predicated
on reconciliation, you know,
being reconciled to God,how can we not be reconciled
to one another?
- With a number of high profile deaths
of black Americans while dealingwith police in recent years
and especially after thekilling of George Floyd,
it's easy to see why so many Americans
are embracing the ideathat black lives matter,
but if they take a closerlook at the positions
of the Black Lives Matterorganization itself,
they might rethink theirsupport for that group.
