Twitter Temporarily Suspends Black Journalist Over Tweet Criticizing BLM Founder
Jason Whitlock, a black sports journalist, was reportedly locked out of his account after he criticized BLM leader Patrisse Cullors’ new homes in mostly white neighborhoods.
Jason Whitlock claimed Twitter blocked him over a tweet he sent explaining the demographics of Topanga Canyon where Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors recently purchased a mansion valued at $1.4 million.
Whitlock’s now removed tweet explained “Topanga Canyon has a black population of 1.4%.” The current Fox Sports commentator sarcastically went on to say “She’s with her people!”
The tweet is replaced with a message claiming the post ‘violated the Twitter Rules.’
BLM activist and co-founder Patrisse Cullors, 37, has purchased four high-end homes for a total of $3.2 million throughout the United States. She’s also been said to be eyeing property in the Bahamas at an exclusive luxury beachfront resort outside Nassau.
Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors is a self-described Marxist.
A Twitter spokesperson told The New York Post that Whitlock’s tweet “violated the Twitter Rules on private information, and the account owner was required to delete the violative Tweet.”
Jason Whitlock said in a YouTube interview later that day “they want the state to own all the property, but she’s out buying property all across the country. She’s acting like a capitalist.”
