RESPONSE

Recurring narrative on the US protests being organised by George Soros and the Democrat party to take power away from Donald Trump illegally. There is no evidence to suggest that the protests in the US broke out through “top-down mobilisation,” or that someone is financing them. More globally, this narrative portrays any spontaneous disorders and civil uprisings in other states, very often the former Soviet republics, as Western-funded "colour revolutions". Black Lives Matter is not a corporation, but a movement advocating racial justice in the US. George Soros and the Open Society Foundations have supported the struggle for racial justice in the United States since 1990s, but it is misleading to claim that Black Lives Matter is sponsored by George Soros. The more extensive debunk from ADL. The widespread protests against racial injustice and police brutality broke out in the US after the death of George Floyd(opens in a new tab) in police custody in Minneapolis on the 25 May 2020. The protests followed several high-profile incidents involving African Americans and the police, invoking debates about racism in the US.
