Every year the Sydney Peace Foundation bestows their Global Peace Prize on extraordinary people who advocate for “true and lasting peace” by ending “war and violent conflict” through addressing “deep injustices and structural inequality.”
Previous years have seen such individuals as Noam Chomsky, Hans Blix and Archbishop Desmond Tutu receive the esteemed prize.
But this year the award is taking a different direction, and rather than being given to a single person, it is being awarded to an entire movement for the first time.
And the winner of the 2017 Global Peace Prize goes to…
Drum roll…
Black Lives Matter.
Black Lives Matter, the movement against racial inequality and police violence in the US which began as a powerful hashtag and became a global rallying cry, will be the 2017 recipient of the Sydney Peace Prize – the first time the often-controversial award has gone to a movement and not an individual.
The prize recognises the work of the amorphous racial justice movement that exists under the catch-all moniker, but has nevertheless managed to unite activists from around the world, including in Australia.
…
The Sydney Peace Prize jury’s citation for this year’s winners applauded the movement “for building a powerful movement for racial equality, courageously reigniting a global conversation around state violence and racism. And for harnessing the potential of new platforms and power of people to inspire a bold movement for change at a time when peace is threatened by growing inequality and injustice.”
But as Louder With Crowder points out, peace is not exactly how one would describe the activities engaged in and supported by Black Lives Matter:
It’s like people don’t have internet access. Memories. Basic motor functions. If they did, they’d be able to use the digits sticking out of their hands to peck a few letters into The Google. Just to verify if Black Lives Matter is worthy of an award bestowment. Like a kind of “vetting” process, if you will. Since the Sydney Peace Foundation lacks finger privilege, I did the search for them.

If this is what the Sydney Peace Foundation considers champions of peace, I’d hate to see what they think war is.
In a world where former U.S. President Barrack Obama is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 for doing absolutely nothing and then subsequently orchestrating campaigns that have led to the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of people across the world it would make perfect sense for the Sydney Peace Foundation to award a similar prize to an organization whose immediate membership and loosely based offshoots advocate for racial segregation, violent protest, and the killing of police officers.
In the eyes of some, peace is war.
WTF!
Orwell was prophetic, as a youngster in the fifties and sixties I read Orwell, and thought his works were akin to science fiction. Every day convinces me that he knew what the future would look like. Sure has been fun while it’s lasted!
Llpoh,we have an assignment for you if you choose to accept it.
Well isn’t this special , after decades of welfare setasides promotion for racial diversity regardless of true abilities . Trillions pissed away on projects , education job programs to create a black middle class by destroying education systems in nearly every city filled with hooded hoodlums breed like animals not raised forcing white people to abandons all but a few enclaves . Then they burn and loot the area and cut the hoses and throw rocks at the fireman yes BLACK LIVES MATTER and the value of the award like all awards given out of political correctness is diminished . I am sure Obamas Nobel Prize is right next to his copy of the Communist Manifesto and Mien Komph . And to think blacks would take on the NAZI persona just change the title !
Black LIves Matter did all that??? Holy Crap! (lol)
Well let me be the first to say that since the Aussies are so bedazzled with the BLM niggahs, we would be THRILLED AS SHIT to send boatloads of blacks to the “land down under” so they can turn Oz into a freakin ghetto like Chicago or Detoilet. WTF is wrong with those maroons?
BL – please do not confuse Aussies with this mob. Aussies are more left leaning than many nations, and has its fair share of nutjobs.
But people here generally go berserk over illegal entry refugees.
I’m shocked Maxine Waters didn’t get it!
BLM gets a world peace prize?
Total BS.
It’s as fucked up as Henry Kissinger getting the Nobel Peace Prize, ain’t it?
Not as fucked up as Obama getting it, though.
About equally fucked up, I’d say. Obama getting it as an unknown asshole affirmative action clown, and Kissinger as an evil, scheming warmonger…yeah, about equally fucked up.
Fuck the niggers!
Sydney Peace Prize is run by a group of far left academic types. Why would this surprise anyone? Australia has more than its fair share of those, just like both the east and west coasts of the US. It is a non-event. Articles like these simply serve to advertise ther bullshit – which is what they are about. All their winners come from the far left.
Nothing to see here.
Damn, I thought Daffy Griffen was a shoe in.
Are Australia and the US racing to bottom as fast as they can?
Black lives havent mattered since the first john deere
I kept looking for the onion.
Most of the world has a distorted view of how Blacks are treated by the police here because Black and minority crime rates are virtually top secret in media reporting (to the almost idiotic extent that race is deliberately left out of crime reports, even in the description of the suspect that police are looking for).
But take Black violent crime out of the statistics and America as peaceful or more peaceful than most of Europe, toss in the illegal immigrant crime and it is more peaceful.
We may have a race problem in this country, but it isn’t the one you see portrayed in the major news sources.
what the heck happened?

Take it easy. This is not anything like the Nobel Peace Prize; it’s just an award from a non-profit foundation at a university in Sydney.
