BLM’s two newest board members share close ties to Patrisse Cullors

Published May 5, 2022 11:00am ET



The national Black Lives Matter group elevated two activists with close ties to the charity’s embattled co-founder and former director, Patrisse Cullors, to its board of directors in late April.

Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation said the activists, Cicley Gay and D’Zhane Parker, will sit on its board alongside longtime member Shalomyah Bowers, who is also closely tied to Cullors. Notably absent from the charity’s announcement was any mention of Hillary Clinton ally Minyon Moore, who was identified as a BLM board member in filings the group submitted to California in February.
