BLM apologizes for the 'stress' caused by 'inflammatory' reports...
• By HARRIET ALEXANDER and JAMES GORDONBlack Lives Matter issued a thinly-veiled apology on Monday night over the left-wing groups purchase of a multi-million dollar mansion that was paid for with donations raised from loyal supporters.
The purchase was fully exposed last week in an article by New York Magazine.
The property was bought for almost $6million in cash in October 2020 with funds that had been donated to BLMGNF (Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation).
On Monday night, the organization finally responded to the reports in a lengthy Twitter feed with the group noting that more 'transparency' was required going forward.
'There have been a lot of questions surrounding recent reports about the purchase of Creator's House in California. Despite past efforts, BLMGNF recognizes that there is more work to do to increase transparency and ensure transitions in leadership are clear,' it stated.
BLM then proceeded to blame the media for the furore and the 'inflammatory and speculative' reports that saw journalists probing the group's financials saying that it 'caused harm'
The reports 'do not reflect the totality of the movement,' the organization claimed.
