Despite recent fraud scandals surrounding the Black Lives Matter organization, city officials in Vermont still continue to publicly support the anti-Semitic activist group. The Black Lives Matter flag still flies above the Burlington, VT City Hall. We find this very offensive as BLM openly supports the Hamas terrorist group and violence against Jews.
A few months ago, the Rabbinic group Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), launched an advertising campaign to urge professional sports teams and big corporations to retract their existing and previous support of BLM.
“Today, BLM stands with Hamas and stands with the terrorists who murdered over 1,400 Jews in Israel. Who still stands with BLM?”
We invite you to read more about the story on BLM from Coalition for Jewish Values.
By affiliating with BLM, large sports teams and corporations are indirectly condoning the ongoing terrorism committed by Hamas against Jews around the world. By flying the Black Lives Matter flag outside of City Hall in Burlington, our tax-funded city officials are signaling their support for the same hate-driven group.
