Black Lives Matter holds 'Black Xmas' to 'divest from white capitalism'
Need to “divest from white capitalism” this Christmas? Neither did I, but I’m not a member of Black Lives Matter. In fact, I’d almost forgotten the loose constellation of social justice groups still existed.
They’re still around, though, and they’re having a Black Christmas. Not just Black Friday, mind you; that’s already been taken. Instead, for the sixth year in a row, they’re asking for "no Spending with White corporations" between Nov. 29 through New Year’s Day.
In a hashtag-heavy manifesto on their website, Black Lives Matter said the sixth annual iteration of the event “is intended to strengthen the economic muscle of the Black community year-round.”...
Molly Worthen wrote: When he speaks to conservative white congregations, he is careful: “While Cone’s ideas are in play, I don’t mention him by name, because I don’t want to put unnecessary stumbling blocks in their way.” Scripture’s authority comes first. “If I’m able to demonstrate that this black man in front of them has read the Bible, I gain credit with them.” He [Strickland] walked me through the argument he used when he spoke at North Greenville University, a Baptist school in Tigerville, S.C. “There was the fall, and all we do now as God’s vice regents is influenced by that fall. So if we’re sinners in need of redemption, so, too, are all the things we create, like law, policy, procedure, practice. That right there is systemic injustice,” he said. “Before they know it, they’re nodding their heads. They’re agreeing that systemic injustice and racism are a form of sin. I get in the back door by walking around the linguistic land mines that are so charged in our cultural climate.”

There are comments from John MacArthur about this movement in the article.
I thought the ethnic minorities wanted equality with their indigenous neighbours.
What happened to all this integration the PC Liberalists were 'preaching'???
Luke 6:32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. 33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same. 34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. 35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. 36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful."
They obviously have not fulfilled their mission since more blacks are killing each other. A recent study showed that for states with high black population, gun violence rates were very high, as if to say, here, stats show you that blacks and guns don't make a good mix. Here's a recent headline that exemplifies this: Training to be a Violence Interrupter in Majority Black Washington D.C., Clarence Venable (Black Male) Shot to Death by Black Male as He Left Training Class
