Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors has installed an electric gate and fencing around her luxury $1.4 million Los Angeles home. Cullors bought the home in March before announcing she will be stepping away from the organization after her luxury home shopping spree caught national attention.
Fox News reports:
Critics have pointed out that Cullors bought the high-end homes despite referring to herself as a “trained Marxist” in the past.
At the time, Cullors said allegations that she enriched herself through donations meant for Black Lives Matter were ‘categorically untrue.” She denied that she received a salary from the foundation, asserting that her income came from other sources, such as proceeds from book sales and a YouTube deal, and was unrelated to the $90 million in donations BLM received in 2020.
A neighbor told Daily Mail that a subcontractor told him the wooden fence they were erecting around the property and other exterior improvements in the “$35,000 range.”
“It will have an electronic gate at the driveway portion, a walk up door, and call box, and other safety measures, cameras – you know, to keep the riff raff out,” the neighbor added.
