Black leaders are calling on Papa John’s, Coca-Cola, and other “woke corporations” to show support for police officers after they “blindly” supported Black Lives Matter and its affiliates.
Concerned Communities for America (CCA), a group of black leaders, on Wednesday held a press conference in Atlanta to ask Papa John’s CEO Robert Lynch and Coca Cola CEO James Quincey to sign pledges in support of police officers.
“This pledge is in response to Papa Johns’ and Coca Cola’s blind support, vocally and/or financially, of the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation and its affiliates,” the group said in a press release.
Concerned Communities for America plans on holding another press conference in New York City on Thursday to ask corporate officials from Comcast/NBC and Peloton to sign the same pledge in support of law enforcement.
In the CCA press release, Pastor Marc Little slammed the corporations for their social justice response.
“What I am exposing is the Four Ds: Defund, Demean, and cause our police to Die, Doing their job protecting and serving all of us,” he said.
He accused the companies of “helping BLM leaders amass a reported treasure trove of hate mongering, blood money totaling 100 million dollars.”
CCA Executive Director DaQuawn Bruce said: “Since the rise of the Civil Rights movement under the unifying leadership of Rev. Martin Luther King, there has been an attempt to exploit his movement’s effort to improve the lives and treatment of Black and Brown Americans.”Major corporations publicly donated to Black Lives Matter causes and made numerous statements in support of racial justice during the 2020 Summer of protests following the death of George Floyd.The group said it “believes that Black lives matter.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
