Criticism of BLM founder for buying villa in rich white neighborhood | Abroad

The self-proclaimed Marxist has bought a pricey hideaway in Los Angeles. Cullors is said to have paid $ 1.4 million for the villa in the Topanga Canyon neighborhood, where, according to the Daily Mail, 88 percent of the residents have a white skin color.

There is an indignant reaction on Twitter at the activist’s choice to purchase a palace in a rich ‘white’ neighborhood. She is accused by both left and right activists of being a fraud.

BLM received $ 90 million in donations last year, the organization previously reported to AP news agency. It is not clear how much salary co-founder Cullors receives.

In addition to the Topanga Canyon home, Cullors and her partner Janaya Khan own three other Los Angeles homes. She was also looking for a place to stay in a resort in the Bahamas, where celebrities like Tiger Woods and Justin Timberlake have a home, the Sun reports. In addition to her work as an activist, Cullors is a teacher at Prescott College in Arizona and is under contract to TV and film giant Warner Brothers. The front woman of Black Lives Matter herself has not yet commented on the matter.
