he co-founder of the polarizing Black Lives Matter movement is under fire for buying a $1.4 million home in a posh California neighborhood that’s 88 percent white.
It’s an interesting decision for Patrisse Cullors, a self-professed Marxist and race-baiting activist who has paid lip service to promoting black pride.
According to Dirt.com, the home is located in Topanga Canyon, an idyllic rustic neighborhood about 48 minutes outside of Los Angeles and less than 30 minutes from tony Malibu.
Cullors’ new home has three bedrooms and two baths and sits on one-quarter of an acre. The property also has a separate one-bedroom, one-bathroom guest house.
But what is most interesting is that the BLM co-founder chose to live in Topanga, where less than 2 percent of the population is black.

Sports journalist Jason Whitlock, who’s himself black, sarcastically called out Cullors for her blatant hypocrisy.
“Black Lives Matter founder buys $1.4 million home in Topanga, which has a black population of 1.4%. She’s with her people!” he tweeted Friday.

Whitlock pointed out that Cullors could have lived anywhere, and in fact, she could’ve made an important political statement if she had chosen to live in a predominantly black neighborhood. But she didn’t.
And that says something about whether she truly believes that “black lives matter.”
“She had a lot of options on where to live. She chose one of the whitest places in California,” Whitlock said.
“She’ll have her pick of white cops and white people to complain about. That’s a choice, bro.”
Do you even comprehend my take? She had a lot of options on where to live. She chose one of the whitest places in California. She’ll have her pick of white cops and white people to complain about. That’s a choice, bro. https://t.co/rBkOnSjb4u

thers on Twitter also pointed out the hypocrisy.
For somebody that claims to love Black people, it’s kinda strange that she chose a place to live that’s practically devoid of Black people🤔 pic.twitter.com/UluZTLfxNs

This backlash is reminiscent of when former President Barack Obama — who perfected the art of sowing racial division — purchased an $11.8 million mansion on a sprawling 29-acre property on Martha’s Vineyard, which is only 3 percent black.
Some on social media said Cullors exploited the Black Lives Matter movement to enrich herself.
She capitalized on that “Injustice against Black People” bag. They’ve been scamming since day 1
