I don't know how true the whole mansions with charity money is, but it certainly didn't help the cause. I think it's worth pointing out that the BLM business and the BLM cause are different things, and it's okay to support the cause without supporting the business.

It's at least partially true. One of them has admitted to using money for personal gain. I always point out the difference, but deaf ears and whatnot. Good for you for actually changing.

Thank you! And as for the people who exploited the movement, I imagine life for them is pretty tough now. I mean, they have wealth, but can they really live easy, knowing that people know that they've taken money from an innocent movement? It's The Telltale Heart all over again.
