Black Lives Matter Co-Founder: Hate Speech Is Not Protected …

On Mondays broadcastof MSNBCLive, Black Lives Matter co-founder and Executive Director and Founder of Dignity Now Patrisse Cullors argued that hate speech isnt protected by the First Amendment and white supremacists are directly related to President Trumps policies.

Cullors said, David Duke and the white supremacists who showed up to Charlottesville, that is Trumps base. And that base is not isolated. Its not its directly related to Trumps policies and the policies that have continued to harm and kill black people and our allies. I think were seeing a movement of white nationalists rising up because theyve been emboldened by trump and his government. And I really want to invite people to be on the right side of history right now.

She added, I think whats important in this moment is white nationalists are actually fighting to take away peoples rights. Black Lives Matter and groups like Black Lives Matter are fighting for equality. And hate speech, which is what were seeing coming out of white nationalist groups, is not protected under the First Amendment rights.
