Looks like some people don't fancy giving an account of the sixty million they've been handed to "remove corporate white gullt"

I wonder how someof the organisations that "proudly handed over tens of thousands" to this bunch of less than accounted for anti white racists feel now ?

Some of us raised concerns when BLM started demanding everything black and the cancelation of everything white  but were shouted down as racist bigots not only by black groups but white apologists as well .

Glad a high profile company like Amazon have decided to take this stance , its long overdue though ,they must have known what we did from the start .

Amazon kicked Black Lives Matter off its charity platform AmazonSmile on Tuesday as the social justice organization faces intense scrutiny from multiple states over the status of its financial windfall from 2020.

The move deprives BLM of a major revenue source that has provided $306 million to U.S. charities and comes less than two years after Amazon itself donated $10 million to BLM and 11 other social justice groups amid the nationwide unrest spurred by George Floyd's killing.

Charitable organizations must meet the requirements outlined in our participation agreement to be eligible for AmazonSmile," an Amazon representative told the Washington Examiner. "Among other eligibility requirements, organizations are required to be in good standing in their state of incorporation and in the states and territories where they are authorized to do business. Organizations that don't meet the requirements listed in the agreement may have its eligibility suspended or revoked. Charities can request to be reinstated once they are back in good standing."

BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors, who resigned from BLM in May, said last Wednesday that the unaccounted millions her group received in 2020 came from "white corporation guilt.
