Black Lives Matter and other groups plan to block white-owned Chicago stores on Black Friday to bring awareness about police shootings, economic issues and alleged racism.
Local churches, Black Lives Matter and the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression will block stores along Michigan Avenue and prevent customers from entering stores for the second year in a row, reports Crain’s Chicago Business.
A big part of the protest is to force on people that it’s important to shop at businesses that aren’t owned by white men, Kimberly Veal, a leader of Black Lives Matter, said. It’s not yet known who owns the businesses that will be targeted as part of this effort.
“One of the cornerstones about why we’re boycotting on Black Friday is to attempt to redirect people to businesses owned by people of color and women, and explain why it’s important to patronize these businesses,” Veal explained.

I wish they would protest my siding job and bring a tool belt!
ReplyDeleteRacial targeting and discrimination. There is no other way to put it. If the shoes were on the other feet and whites were blocking the entrance to a black owned store it would not be tolerated. This should not either. They should be arrested if they block the entrances to the stores and will not let people in.
ReplyDeleteOkay, so let me get this straight. The organization that pays its employees to bring violence against whites, police, and conservative businessman and women is planning to "...block white-owned Chicago stores on Black Friday to bring awareness about police shootings, economic issues and alleged racism."
ReplyDeleteAnd they will receive paychecks for this through the DNC from George Soros, the Clintons, and Obama's cronies.
Get it now, Blacks? You are being played Big Time!
This barely organized movement has more contradictions to it than it can support or even rationally explain.
ReplyDeleteThey don't realize that they're all the unwitting, throwaway tools of some very, very rich white men, and the money tree for some very, very unscrupulous black men.
soros slaves have a job now.
ReplyDeleteAnd this is legal?
ReplyDeleteThis is the very racism/sexism/fascism that they claim to be fighting.
"If you do it, it's wrong, but if we do it, it's social justice."
Right.
Rumor was they were planning protest in salisbury over the way city adminstrator job was handled. Jake Day now announces that there is a "realignment of cuty government" ANOTHER NEW position created to move current administrator to and the process will be conducted correctly. If this is true it's sad it took all of this but Jake Day well done, you did the right thing
ReplyDeleteIf we say Black Friday's Matter, will that change their mindset?
ReplyDeleteDoubt it!
Law and order will be restored in 60 days.
ReplyDeleteIf they block all stores that are owned by whites, they won't have many places to shop. Then all the black people that work in the white owned stores will loose their jobs. These black lives matter people are a bunch of smart cookies arn't they!
ReplyDeleteshoot da BOYS
ReplyDeleteDon't let this bother you folks.
ReplyDeleteThey are really blocking JEWISH owned businesses, but are afraid to say / type the word.
How pathetic.
I urge all white people to try this the next time you shop in WalMart or another large chain store. When you are ready to check out at a register staffed by a real person (self-checkout doesn't apply), only do so if a white person is the cashier. If the line with the white cashier is backed up and you are directed to move to another line by a manager, refuse to do so. If asked why, tell them you are a member of White Lives Matter.
ReplyDeleteIt's black Friday man, you can't go in no white store. Black stores only, why do you think they call it black Friday?
ReplyDeleteLets block our tax dollars from feeding them. Shut down welfare.
ReplyDeleteThere are over 11 million white people who get welfare. Look it up....they are on welfare just like some blacks people.
DeleteVersus how many African Americans?
DeleteJust like SOME blacks?? 40% Of people on welfare are African American . As a working person driving through Salisbury during a normal work day it's not white people I see walking around town with nothing to do 😒. This is one of many reasons I voted Trump. Quite frankly I'm tired of my taxes supporting the non working yet fully abled people on welfare. Get a job! It's what good upstanding people do!
DeleteGuess the "white only businesses" won't have any shoplifters. More profit. Love it.
ReplyDeleteWhere I work I see more Caucasian coming in for theft just so they can support their heroin addiction.
DeleteThat's a lie and you know it but good try!
DeleteHave you ever noticed there no major grocery stores in some neighborhoods. That wouldn't be because of shoplifting would it?

ReplyDeleteWell, Black Friday is approaching being over for 2016.
How did those protests go for y'all?
Check this out I LOVE ALL IF YOU AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!! It's time to put all this petty BS behind us and come together as a nation, we have a lot more pressing issues on the horizon than this same old black white garbage. There IS a fanatical sector that is willing to die for their cause, the cause of making all nations practice ISLAM. Thus problem will not just go away and we need to rise up together to protect all of our rights and freedoms
