A group of Black Lives Matter protesters in Seattle marched through a residential neighborhood two months ago demanding that white residents give up their homes, dramatic video shows.
Footage of the demonstration posted to Twitter shows a crowd of dozens chanting “Black lives matter” before an unidentified man projects his ire toward nearby white residents — saying they are living in a historically black section of the city as another woman in the crowd yells that they should “give up” their homes, the clip shows.
“Do you know that before your white —— came here, this was all black people?” the man says. “Do you know people like you came in here and basically bought all the land from the black people for less than what it was worth, kicked them out so you could live here? Do you know that?”
The man continues: “’Cause if you don’t, now you $#@!# do — now do something about it!”
Another woman in the crowd then urges the residents to “open their wallet” as the man continues to yell at the unidentified residents off-camera.
“So how do you plan to fix it?” the man continues. “As a gentrifier, because you are part of that problem.”
A boisterous woman with a megaphone then urges the residents to “give up” their house, the footage shows.
“Give black people back their homes!” she yells. “You’re sitting there comfortably — comfortable as $%#@! as if they didn’t help gentrify this neighborhood! I used to live in this neighborhood, and my family was pushed out, and you’re sitting up there having a good time with your other white friends!”
A second clip purportedly shows BLM demonstrators and Antifa members calling for white people to “get the —— out” as others in the crowd call for reparations.
“Give us our —— back!” one man yells.
Yet another clip apparently shot in the aftermath of the protest also shows demonstrators threatening a business owner who allegedly called cops to report that a window had been shattered at his business.
“You’re being racist, you’re being racist,” a protester tells the unidentified white business owner.“ Check your privilege, check your privilege.”
The protester then tells the man to “go back to his gentrification business” while yelling profanities at him, the clip shows.
