You're not gonna believe this, but some of the people running the BlackLivesMatter movement seem to care more about profiting financially than helping victims of unjustified police violence.
The fact that Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta had its not-for-profit status revoked in 2019 did not stop the group from taking more than $430,000 in donations, or from activist Sir Maejor Page from using $200,000 for his personal expenses.
An affidavit filed in federal district court on Thursday, and an announcement from the FBI on Friday, shows that the charitable status for the group was revoked after it failed to file taxes for three straight years.
On the Facebook page that BLM of Greater Atlanta used for fundraising, reveals that Page, who was born Tyree Conyers-Page, said that all funds raised would be used to fight for justice for George Floyd. These expenses apparently include tailored suits for Page, as well as real estate buys, according to The Daily Caller.
