Last August, a crazed woman stormed Bernie Sander’s stage and interrupted him as he was speaking to supporters at a campaign rally. This woman, a co-founder of Black Lives Matter in Seattle, who screamed out over the crowed, is Marissa Jenae Johnson. Her views are controversial and influenced by what she described as her horrifying childhood.
If you are white, you are automatically owing to the black Americans, according to Johnson. If you believe that all lives matter, then you are racist. Until white America makes up for what Johnson remembers as the horrors of her childhood, she will continue her activism.
In a Fox News interview, John Roberts asked her why she stormed Bernie’s stage, as he seems to represent her cause and hopes.
Roberts asked Johnson why protest Bernie Sanders, “He’s the far-left candidate.”
“Left for white folks,” Johnson replied. “He’s left for the needs and concerns of mainstream white America.”
“The Democrats have always been reliant on the black vote,” Johnson continued. “Part of what we’re doing is waking black voters up to their power as a voting bloc, within the Democratic party.”
“Has the Democratic Party taken African-American voters for granted?” Roberts asked.
“Consistently, always,” Johnson replied while laughing at the question. “Always and forever.”
When asked what needs to happen for progress to be made, Johnson suggested some controversial ideas.
“What it’s gonna take to dismantle white supremacy is white folks actually gotta give up something,” she said. “You have to actually sacrifice yourself. You have to be willing to give up the things that you currently benefit from.”
Whites also fought for your freedom in the Civil War and many died. My great-grandfather was among them. If he was alive today I wonder if he would feel the same way…
Anyone that grew up believing that people hate them, seriously needs to be healed themselves from the trauma. She needs to first, work on healing her own trauma wounds, then she can move on to help others..
I guess I am racest cause to me and by jesus all lives matter. I be damn if I give up anything cause I dont owe nothing to no body except Jesus. Cause he gave up his life for all of us. BLM can kiss my ass.
