![]() ![]() ![]() “Believe all things” and “hope all things” does not mean naively trusting those who routinely deceive. Nor should our desire for racial justice and reconciliation lead us to support BLM’s anti-Christian values and immoral tactics. But we cannot afford to ignore credible evidence of that possibility. It’s quite alarming to think America’s civil unrest has been fomented by foreign agents or Marxist ideologues. Gonzalez has called for an investigation into BLM’s connection to China, given its co-founder’s financial ties and China’s interest in undermining our democratic elections. One BLM co-founder, Alicia Garza, also founded the Black Futures Lab, a group that Gonzalez has reported is financially tied to the Chinese Progressive Association, a revolutionary group that has engaged in pro-China and pro-communist activities here in the United States, including warning the Biden presidential campaign against “China-bashing” in March. While “the media covers for them” with irrelevant statistics said Gonzalez, “the protests are being manipulated” by Marxists, even if many protestors themselves would reject that label. Gonzalez also insisted that BLM’s leaders have a Marxist ideology. So, even if the police protests are “mostly peaceful,” where there is violence, there’s a good chance it involves BLM activists. Gonzalez pointed out that BLM activists were involved with 95% of riots this summer for which there is information about the perpetrators’ affiliation (582 incidents), according to data collected by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project. What is it about perpetuating the sexual revolution that fosters racial reconciliation? It also wants freedom from “heteronormative thinking,” the notion that attraction to the opposite sex is normal and not merely one option in a buffet. ![]() In other words, it wants to teach your children gender may not match sex, force you to describe people with their preferred pronouns, and allow persons to intrude on private areas for the opposite sex. On the “What We Believe” page, the national BLM organization also promised to work to “dismantle cisgender privilege and uplift Black trans folk” and free themselves from “heteronormative thinking.” “They’re beginning to do the Marxist thing, which is to airbrush history out of the way,” said Gonzalez. But another possibility is that it wants to hide its agenda from public scrutiny. No evidence nor advocates have suggested BLM’s beliefs have changed. Perhaps its anti-family stance helps explain why BLM has seen its popularity slide 12 percentage points over the summer.īut this leaves the question, why did BLM remove the “What We Believe” page from its website? Research has long shown the nuclear family yields better outcomes for children. On the “What We Believe” page, the BLM group’s official website claimed to stand for disrupting the “nuclear family structure.” That is, until the group recently scrubbed its website by removing the page (its new “About” page is much more abbreviated). Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow at The Heritage Foundation, discussed his research into the organization on “ Washington Watch.” That’s why the unjustified deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor this summer jarred so many Americans, including many white evangelicals (and why we should be similarly horrified by Chicago’s murder wave: 558 and counting this year).īut the organization calling itself “Black Lives Matter” stands for something quite different. Black lives don’t just “matter” (that’s such a utilitarian word) they are precious in God’s sight because they reflect his image. Americans overwhelmingly agree that the lives of black people have as much value as the lives of white people and people of every skin color. ![]()
