May 28, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — Openly homosexual Black Lives Matter (BLM) co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors announced her resignation as the group’s executive director Thursday amid controversy surrounding the personal wealth she amassed during her tenure.
The New York Post reports that she says it “feels like the time is right” to step down in favor of working on a book and television deal, claiming to have “created the infrastructure and the support, and the necessary bones and foundation, so that I can leave.”
In April, reports surfaced that Khan-Cullors has in recent years purchased no less than four high-end residences totalling $3.2 million, which provoked questions about how she could afford such purchases, having been paid just $120,000 from 2013 to 2019 (roughly $17,000 per year) in her capacity as a BLM spokesperson.
