She\u2019s only saying that to get the heat off her right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lisa Simpson, whose son was shot in Los Angeles, California, added. \u201cNow she doesn\u2019t have to show her accountability. She can just take the money and run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cullors <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/breaking-blm-co-founder-patrisse-cullors-resigns-amid-controversy\">announced that she was stepping down from her position<\/a> at the helm of the Black Lives Matter movement on Friday, following news that she engaged in a \u201creal estate binge\u201d that saw the BLM co-founder splash out more than $3 million on four private residences.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/05\/06\/patrisse-cullors-damon-turner-black-lives-matter-contract-payments\/\">Daily Caller also reported<\/a> that Cullors \u201chad used her position as the charity\u2019s leader to funnel business to an art company led by the father of her only child. Charity&nbsp;experts said BLM\u2019s arrangement with the art company, Trap Heals, amounts to self-dealing and raises ethical and legal questions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cullors, though, claims her resignation is not the result of these controversies, telling media that the allegations \u201cwere right-wing attacks that tried to discredit my character, and I don\u2019t operate off of what the right thinks about me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rice and Simpson, though, told the Post that Cullors has problems with more than just the right. Rice told the Post that \u201cshe first sought out Cullors to enlist the group\u2019s help in re-opening a federal investigation into her son\u2019s 2014 death. She said she exchanged a few emails with Cullors over the years, but had never managed a face-to-face meeting.\u201d Simpson said that Black Lives Matter raised $5000 for her son\u2019s funeral but never delivered the check.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement posted in March, the two women lashed out at BLM for leaving them \u201cclueless and broken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe never hired them to be the representatives in the fight for justice for our dead loved ones murdered by the police,\u201d the pair said. \u201cThe \u2018activists\u2019 have events in our cities and have not given us anything substantial for using our loved ones\u2019 images and names on their flyers. We don\u2019t want or need y\u2019all parading in the streets accumulating donations, platforms, movie deals, etc. off the death of our loved ones, while the families and communities are left clueless and broken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Tamika Palmer, Breonna Taylor\u2019s mother, echoed the pair in a social media post of her own.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have never personally dealt with BLM Louisville and personally have found them to be fraud (sic),\u201d Palmer wrote.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
