(b. 1984) The daughter of illegal aliens from Nigeria, and one of the co-founders of the Marxist revolutionary group Black Lives Matter (BLM). She describes herself as “a queer social activist and Marxist,” and who has used the twitter handle “Love God Herself.” Tometi, has publicly supported Venezuela’s white communist dictator Nicolás Maduro, working as an “observer” in Venezuela’s fraudulent 2015 election and taking a photograph with him that appeared in VTV, the country’s state-owned propaganda broadcaster.
She grew up in Phoenix and attended the University of Arizona-Tucson, where she earned a BA in history and an MA in communications & advocacy. During her college years, Tometi volunteered for an American Civil Liberties Union project that monitored and reported on the activities of “vigilantes” who sought to prevent illegal immigrants from entering the United States.
According to Discover the Networks, Tometi began working for a George Soros–funded group, Black Alliance for Just Immigration (BAJI), as a national organizer in January 2011 where she strives to advance “immigrant rights and racial justice” for “African-American, Afro-Latino, African and Caribbean immigrant communities.”

In 2013, Tometi collaborated with Alicia Garza and Patrisse Cullors to co-found Black Lives Matter (BLM), an online platform designed to stoke black rage and galvanize a protest movement in response to the acquittal of George Zimmerman, a white man who was tried for murder and manslaughter after he had shot and killed a black Florida teenager named Trayvon Martin in a highly publicized February 2012 altercation.
In a January 2015 piece titled “Celebrating MLK Day: Reclaiming Our Movement Legacy,” Tometi calls for the development of a “new” and “radical” contingent of “Black trans people, Black queer people, Black immigrants, Black incarcerated people and formerly incarcerated people, Black millennials, Black women, low income Black people, and Black people with disabilities” to lead social-justice activism in the United States.
On December 3, 2015, Tometi traveled to Venezuela to serve as an election observer. While there, she tweeted: “Currently in Venezuela. Such a relief to be in a place where there is intelligent political discourse.” In 2016, Tometi penned an article in which she said: “[I]n these last 17 years, we have witnessed the Bolivarian Revolution champion participatory democracy and construct a fair, transparent election system recognized as among the best in the world.”
In the election that Tometi observed, Smartmatic boasted involvement with virtually every aspect of the election. “Our end-to-end solution automated every step of the process, from voter authentication, vote casting and results publication.”
In March 2016, Fortune magazine named Tometi and her two BLM co-founders to its list of the “50 of the most influential world leaders.”
In addition to her work with BAJI and BLM, Tometi is also active in a network called Black Organizing for Leadership and Dignity (BOLD), which teaches black activists how to help build a “social justice infrastructure.” She is a board member of the Puente Human Rights Movement, a Phoenix-based group that opposes efforts to stem the flow of illegal immigration. And she describes herself as a “believer and practitioner of liberation theology.”
Tometi, along with BLM co-founders Alicia Garza and Patrisse Cullors all worked for front groups of the Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO), one of the four largest radical Left organizations in the country. The others are the Communist Party USA (CPUSA), Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS). Nelini Stamp’s ACORN—now rebranded under a variety of different names—works with all four organizations, and Dream Defenders is backed by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), the ACLU, the Southern Poverty Law Center and others.
Constitutional Law Attorney Robert Barnes believes all three BLM cofounders are involved in witchcraft. In his June 8, 2020 broadcast The Witchcraft of the Riots Explained, Barnes said: “There has been discussion in some parts of the public media space that several [of the cofounders] have been deeply involved in this tradition.” Barnes refers to cofounders Opal Tometi, a daughter of Nigerian immigrants, and Alicia Garza, who describes herself, like Cullors, as “a queer social activist and Marxist,” and who has used the twitter handle “Love God Herself.”
Patrisse Cullors openly practices the occult religion “Ifa,” an African “system of divinization” according to Wikipedia, which defines divination as “an occultic, standardized process or ritual.” Wiki’s bio of Cullors states that she “developed an interest in the Nigerian religious tradition of Ifa, incorporating its rituals into political protest events.”
