BLM A Marxist Movement

Black Lives Matter is run by Marxist organizers. They have not been silent about their agenda to dismantle the nuclear family, transform gender/sexual identity and force radical change. So why are so many eagerly following along? Conservative educator Carol Swain, who taught political science and law at Vanderbilt University and was a tenured professor at Princeton, says bluntly, “I believe the organization is using black people to advance a Marxist agenda and the corporations, the schools, the churches and the people that have gotten behind Black Lives Matter, they think their helping and showing support for black people, but actually it’s the opposite.” Appearing with host Will Witt on PragerU, Swain dissects the BLM movement that has taken center stage in America.

The Ferguson Lie

One of the most significant events of this century happened on Aug. 9, 2014, on the outskirts of St. Louis, in a town called Ferguson, Mo. The event is so imbedded in our psyche that if you just mention Ferguson, everyone knows what you’re talking about–alleged police brutality and racial injustice. Problem is, people think they know what happened in Ferguson, but many are mistaken. During that fateful evening, a young black man, Michael Brown, was shot and killed by a police officer, which fueled nights of riots and gave fuel to a new social movement–Black Lives Matter. Syndicated radio-show host Larry Elder breaks down the details of that night in Ferguson and its historical significance in this episode of PragerU.

Cops Are The Good Guys

Armed with nothing but facts, watch Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke school and rattle Don Lemon, who masquerades as an anchor on CNN. Clarke’s point: What the media fails to acknowledge is that Black Lives Matters fuels violent and anti-police sentiment. Clarke puts Lemon in such an uncomfortable position that the liberal lemming calls for a commercial break! In his appearance on PragerU following the newsclip, Clarke explains that cops don’t have to be perfect, they have to be excellent, and often under extremely difficult circumstances. “Today, police are more professional, better educated and better trained that at any time in their history,” Clarke says. “You wouldn’t know it, though, if you listened to self-serving, self-righteous politicians and activists.” Tune in as Clarke further unloads on the law enforcement naysayers.

Separation Of Church And State

With the recent COVID-19 lockdown dust-up over relaxing restrictions when it comes to places of worship, Americans are reminded of the doctrine of separation of church and state. Most Americans believe it is a vital part of the Constitution. But there is no such phrase in the Constitution and there never was.

Why? Because our founding fathers never intended church and state to be completely separate. They saw religions, specifically based on the Bible, as indispensable to the moral foundation of the nation they were creating. In the following episode of PragerU, John Eastman, senior fellow at the Claremont Institute, guides us through the genesis of the doctrine and its value to society.
